CHEW STOKE

We are a welcoming congregation who worship in the village of Chew Stoke and seek to serve the village and surrounding communities. Chew Stoke is set in beautiful countryside close to the Mendips and even closer to Chew Lake, one of the largest man-made lakes in the South West and a haven for bird-life. There has been a worshipping community of Methodists in Chew for 230 years and the older part of the buildings bicentenery was celebrated in 2016. In 2001/2 we added a modern extension with kitchen and showers which mean that the chapel is a valuable resource for village groups and for visiting groups such as youth groups and away days. As a Christian congregation we worship regularly on Sunday mornings. In 2020 we have refurbished the worship area of the church removing the front 4 rows of pews, carpeting the area and renewing the soft furnishings. Covid 19 has resulted in the installation of a television screen to display words of hymns and other media now that hymn books cannot given out. There are fellowship groups that meet either at the church or in a home in the village and there is a monthly lunch club with organisers from the village, for older people from the locality.We seek to extend a warm welcome to all who would like to come to our church and hope to provide worship and activities that are relevant to the lives of all around us.
