Welcome to Bolsover Methodist Church, located on Hill Top, just off Bolsover's town centre.

The Church building at Hilltop was opened in 1896 and offers a friendly welcome to all people in the Bolsover area as well as being a worship and community hub for social support, spiritual care and family gathering.

Many church movements based in community care have originated from this building, including: the Lay Witness Mission Movement at Bolsover (from the USA), Freedom Community Project and CBS Community Bible Study at Bolsover (from London).

We are also a Church that has nurtured members & supported their calling into Methodist Ministry.

We worship together every Sunday morning at 10.30am.

Bolsover's Life and Mission

The calling of Bolsover Methodist Church is to respond to the gospel of God's love in Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission.

It does this by focussing around four themes:

• Worship that connects people with God, that is both recognizable and fresh.
• Caring that enables people to experience the care of Christ in formal and informal ways.
• Learning that helps people to grow as disciples of Christ and be enabled in their service of Him.
• Mission that engages with this community and beyond, and enables us to express the love of God in Christ.

Bolsover's Building

Bolsover Methodist Church was built in 1896 for worship, with no provision on site for other activities. Subsequently, the original balcony was converted into an upper room, and a small extension added, the Wesley Room. In 1991, a further extension was added, the Sykes Room, providing much needed space for the growing activities of the church.
