Marlborough Road Methodist Church

Methodist
Congregation: 75 adults (10 under 18)

Marlborough Road Methodist Church has occupied the site on the corner of Marlborough Road and New Kent Road since 1898. A welcoming and vibrant multicultural congregation use a large traditional building. We have something for almost everyone! Our congregation has a real sense of being part of a worldwide church, so we regularly support relief and development projects in other parts of the world. Our premises are used by several organisations. Holy Communion is usually celebrated on the second Sunday of each month. Fair Trade coffee and tea are served in the hall after worship. We are an All We Can Partner Church, an Eco Church (Bronze Award), a Fair Trade Church and an Inclusive Church.
