Brookside Methodist Church

Through God's Grace we seek to make Brookside Methodist Church a place for everyone to come together and allow Jesus and the Holy Spirit to make a lasting difference in our lives, community and church.

2026 is the 50th Anniversary of Brookside Church.  Plans are getting underway for celebrations throughout the year.  Please watch out as details of all events will appear on the website as soon as they are available.  We hope the community around Brookside will join in our celebrations.

We are a friendly congregation and our building has wheelchair access, projected services and a sound system with a hearing loop.   Sunday morning services are at 10.30 am.   

Prayer and support continue to be offered to church members, contacts and anyone in need.  If you would like us to pray specifically for you, your family or friends, please send the details by email to contactbrookside@gmail.com

BROOKSIDE ONLINE NEWSLETTER (monthly) and notices (weekly) are being distributed by email.  If you are interested please send your details to contactbrookside@gmail.com

A Discrimination and Abuse Response Service is available from the Methodist Church if you have experienced discrimination or abuse within a church setting.  Details through our Contact Us and Useful Links page.

We are delighted that our new flat roof was installed ahead of time and with minimal disturbance.  We have also been able to refurbish our Ladies' toilets.  We are grateful to everyone who has contributed to the fund for this work, including the Big Lottery Fund and Peterborough Methodist Circuit which have awarded us grants.
