A short introduction

Welcome to the Nottingham and Derby Methodist District website, where you can learn more about our wonderful community of faith. We are part of the Methodist Church in Britain, a Christian denomination that follows the teachings and example of John Wesley, a 18th century preacher and reformer who inspired a movement of social and spiritual renewal. We are also part of the worldwide Methodist family, which has over 80 million members in more than 130 countries.

Our district covers the counties of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, as well as parts of Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, and Staffordshire. We have over 200 local churches in our district, each with its own unique identity and mission. We also have several chaplaincies, projects, and initiatives that serve different groups and needs in our society.

Our Values

The Nottingham and Derby Methodist District is a community of Christians who are committed to sharing the love of God with all people. They have a vision of being a growing, evangelistic, inclusive Church that celebrates the diversity of God’s creation. They seek to speak of, listen for, and live out the goodness of God in their words and actions. They value every human being as part of God’s family and strive to serve the needs of their neighbours and the world
