Welcome to the Northampton Circuit of The Methodist Church
Within this site you will find information about the Methodist Church in Northampton and the surrounding area. We hope that you will find these pages useful, and we warmly invite you to join us for worship at any of our churches.
The Northampton Circuit operates a Team Ministry. The Circuit Leadership Team, ministers and lay representatives are jointly responsible for overseeing the life of the Methodist churches.
The ordained Ministers meet weekly to share responsibility for the life of the circuit. In addition individual ministers have pastoral responsibility for groups of churches – these are:
- 3 Town Centre Churches
- (Kingsley Park, Park Avenue and Queensgrove),
- 4 Village Churches
- (Astcote, Great Billing, Harpole and Roade)
- 3 Community Churches
- (Kingsthorpe, St Andrews and Towcester Road).
The Emmanuel Group of Churches, a Local Ecumenical Partnership, also forms part of our circuit.
The Northampton Circuit operates a safeguarding policy for children and vulnerable adults.
