Welcome
to The Beacon Church & Christian Centre
website... |
|
| |
...and
the birth of a new church! |
|
The Beacon Church was formed in September 2003 when the congregations
of three churches in Dover joined together. The Methodist churches
at London Road and Tower Hamlets and St Columba United Reformed
Church have united, and the first services took place on Sunday,
7 September 2003.
We are now planning to demolish our church and redevelop the
site with a new worship centre.
The last Methodist service was held at London Road on 24 August
2003, and the last services were held at St Columba and Tower
Hamlets on 31 August. These were occasions of mixed emotions
- sadness at the end of an era, but excitement at what is to
come.
Our first service together as The Beacon Church was a service
of Holy Communion, led by the Rev. John Lines, who was then
our Minister.
In the evening, we used the musical setting of Holy Communion,
Breaking Bread, for a service which was also attended by members
of the other Methodist Churches in the Dover and Deal Circuit.
Please come back and visit our website again soon, and keep
