Anerley is one of nine Churches that make up the Blackheath and Crystal Palace Circuit of the Methodist Church. We are a small but thriving Congregation that works hard to meet the needs of our local Community.

Our premises are well maintained and adaptable and we hope that you will find our friendly welcome as warm and welcoming as the premises themselves. Read More … about About

Stay Alert, Control the Virus, Save Lives

• When in Shops, on public transport or in crowded places wear face covering
• Do not leave home if you or anyone in your household has symptoms
• Wash your hands regularly
• Avoid touching your face
• If you cough or sneeze use a tissue and dispose of it
• Wipe down or disinfect surfaces that may be touched by others – e.g. door handles
• Isolate if you have symptoms and go on line to www.111.nhs.uk or call 111 for advice

 

If anyone has pastoral needs or is aware of any of our community that needs help or support, please tell your Pastoral Visitor, a Steward or our Minister Abe so that we can respond appropriately

Prayer of the Day

All creation blesses you, O Lord. Exiles offer you worship. Pilgrims hallow your name. Saints adore you. Humanity offers its praise. And we your servants lift our hearts and voices to you in joy and thanksgiving. Amen.

Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)

Gracious God,
you are almighty and greater than anything we can imagine,
and yet you are a friend and closer to us than every breath we take.
You are forever generous
and there are no boundaries to your love.
In a world that is forever changing, you remain constant.
Help us to remain firm in you.
As your people, may we seek to build each other up.
May walking together strengthen our pilgrimage,
trusting in Christ?s name, and by the power of the Spirit. Amen.
