The website of the Bristol & South Gloucestershire Circuit
of the Methodist Church
(or 'BSGC' for short)
Methodists in
Bristol and South Gloucestershire
say
"WELCOME!"
Please remember the Methodist Conference in your prayers this coming week, and especially Revs Den Harding and Ann Owen, who will be ordained on Sunday, (and whose pictures should flicker across your screen above -if you wait 20 seconds)
There is a booklet about THE CONFERENCE which you can download
if you go to a link by
clicking on the logo on the right>
If you came to this site after seeing the article about Wesley Day in
you're welcome to go to our
News Gallery
to see some pictures of the events and to go the
The New Room website
to read about this unique building in Bristol,
-it received 25,000 visitors last year, and as a Fresh Expression of the Church spoke about spiritual matters with a large number of them every day of the week (do ALL churches manage that even on Sundays?)
One talking point at the moment in the Methodist Church, and at the Conference, is
CONFIDENTIALITY.
'With
Integrity and Skill' is a report that offers guidance for good practice
in matters of confidentiality for anyone who exercises a pastoral role
(lay, ordained, paid or voluntary) on behalf of the Methodist Church.
To get a choice of the FULL REPORT or GUIDELINES either please

All welcome, especially those who have passed through Methsoc in the past years.

The church building at Southville, which has served the community well in the past, needs to be better-equipped to help the local community.
It has been short-listed in the Evening Post 'Building Healthy Communities' competition, voting has closed now, and we wish the good people of South Bristol success.
All the churches in the Circuit
are on an updated list
HERE
The list has names and addresses of each of our church centres in *.doc format -including Zion United Church (left) in Frampton Cotterell
And all sorts of past events are shown in our News Gallery
The Christian Aid Ethiopia Water Project
Over £5,000 has been received - and there's more to be added for Gift Aided Donations. With match funding this means that £20,000 has been provided for a complete well. So many thanks.
If any other church has a donation to make, please send it to Rev. Peter Mortlock a.s.a.p.
