St James' Church, Methodist/URC, Woolton, Liverpool, UK
In our heart is a commitment to follow the way of Jesus Christ and to share the love of God with all.
Welcome to St James', whether this is your first time or your one-hundred-and-first, welcome! We are a Christian community that strives to follow Jesus by welcoming people of all backgrounds, nationalities, personal histories, sexual orientations, and gender identities. We worship, pray, and grow together, in both difficult and joyful moments, and on this journey we respect that we can be in different places along the way. In Christ, in this place, with these people, you have found a home.
Minister's Message
Whilst we pray for growth it is clear that we still have great people and resources amongst us and looking at St James and around our Circuit, we see many opportunities to serve our local community.
For example, our buildings are a great resource to help serve God's purpose in our local community. Our resources in terms of people are you and I, each other and all of us together., are we the seeds from which something new can grow?
We can be sure that with Jesus there is always the offer of resurrection and new life; right at the end of the Bible (Revelation, chapter 21: verse 5) John hears God's voice declaring "I am making everything new", God Bless, Peter.
