Coffee Mornings

10.30am First Thursday each month
Christmas and Bonfire night are soon going to be here and when will your lights start to be put up? With the darker nights come and enjoy our brighter daytime as we meet to raise money for Blesma: a military charity helping those who have lost limbs. Since 1932 they have been helping people rebuild their lives by providing rehabilitation and welfare support. 
We met in October to raise about £85 for the Bone Cancer Research Trust. This charity aims to give hope to people and families suffering from primary bone cancer.

Spare Stamps

We collect stamps for the Leprosy Mission. It is hard to believe that a bunch of used stamps can help transform the life of someone affected by leprosy. But the fact is that it can! Over the past 30 years the Leprosy Mission has raised more than £1 million to benefit people affected by leprosy. Find out more here

Forward planning events for the Bi-Centenary of Whitacre Chapel

Whitacre Methodist Church was founded and opened in 1820 on a site in Birmingham Road moving to the current building in Station Road which was completed in 1914.
Plans are now being developed to celebrate this massive achievement over the year since the first paperwork mentioning the chapel in late 1819 through to its opening in 1820. A short history book is being written and preachers are already being booked to make what promises to be a big year. Some will remember that we celebrated the actual centenary in style over a big weekend in February which coincided with the actual opening day on 7th Feb 1914. We are now looking forward to an even bigger series of events throughout the bicentenary year of Methodism in Whitacre in 2020.
