Sheffield Methodist District
02 September 2010
The calling of the Methodist Church is to respond to the gospel of God's love in Jesus Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission. The Sheffield District is one of 32 Districts of the Methodist Church in Great Britain.
Methodism in the area has a strong local presence, a faithful tradition of worship and a growing sense of commitment to the wider community. Combined with strong local loyalties there is an awareness of the need for change, which has resulted in a new sense of local ministry and neighbourhood action in several places.
The District Office, the administrative centre for the Methodist Church in the Sheffield area, is located in the Victoria Hall in central Sheffield.
