Welcome to our Circuit Website

windmills_treleaverWe hope that it will give you information on the Methodist Churches in the area and the events taking place in them. 

For latest information please seeFacebook

The Circuit consists of fourteen churches and covers the growing towns of Falmouth and Penryn along with a variety of coastal and rural villages. Combined Universities in Cornwall is based within the circuit boundary.

We work as a team across the Circuit with ministry being provided by a superintendent minister, another minister, one deacon, a pastor and an active supernumerary minister and many lay people. There are strong ecumenical links in many places with churches of different denominations joining together regularly for worship, study and fellowship.

We hope that you will take the opportunity to visit one of our churches if you are in this part of Cornwall. We are sure that you will receive a warm welcome. If you want to contact us, you are able to do so via this website.

Weekly Worship Online

Most circuit churches are functioning following the pandemic - For times and places of Sunday worship please see Plan.

From June, there will be a new pattern with just  ONE act of worship online each week.

This will go out on Sunday mornings on Facebook & YouTube as usual, led on alternate weeks by members of the Circuit Ministry Team, or by Local Preachers and Worship Leaders working collaboratively.

Falmouth Methodists start new venture

Following the sale of the former church building on the Moor, Falmouth Methodist Church has relocated to New Street Church Hall, just behind the Parish Church of King Charles the Martyr. “We are extremely grateful to Rev. Bill Stuart-White and his congregation for kindly agreeing to our using the Parish Church Hall” commented Rev. Andrew Mumford. “Not only have we been made to feel very welcome, but we are delighted that we can continue to be an active Church in the centre of Falmouth.”Rev Andrew Mumford leads morning worship at Falmouth Methodist Churchs new home in New StreetThe Methodist Church services continue to be held every Sunday at 10.30am at New Street Church Hall, to which everyone is warmly welcomed. After Sunday services, the congregations of King Charles and Falmouth Methodist Churches meet up over refreshments, enabling both to get to know each other. “Coming just a few weeks after the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, what better example could there be of churches working together?” said Euan McPhee, Falmouth Methodist Church member and Chair of Falmouth & Penryn Churches Together.
As another indication of collaborative working, joint Midweek Communions are being held at New Street. These take place at 10.30am, normally on the first and third Thursdays of each month, being led alternately by a Methodist minister and an Anglican priest, with both congregations warmly invited to attend.
In yet another expression of churches working together, there are to be a couple of discussion groups during Lent, hosted by three churches – King Charles, All Saints and Falmouth Methodist Churches. These will be taking place on Wednesdays at 2.00pm starting on 9 March or at 7.00pm starting on 2 March at New Street Church Hall. All are welcome to join these events.
Falmouth Methodist Church congregation in their new home New StreetWhilst their new home in New Street is a temporary arrangement, it gives Falmouth Methodist Church members time to determine where their next home will be. They are committed to remaining in the Falmouth area; the Methodist Church used to be known as The Church on the Moor – now it is The Church on the Move! Rev. Andrew commented “We are constantly reminded that the Church is the people of God, not the building. We will still be together in our new location.”

God for All

God for All logoA monthly newsletter about evangelism and growth in the Methodist Church in Britain

Every month or so, we share stories of hope, resources for learning, and next steps for action. We try to keep it short and hopefully fun.

To find out more about how the Evangelism & Growth team can offer encouragement and accompaniment in your next steps, check out the short online Next Steps guidebook. We can post you paper copies, too – just let us know how many you need.

Crunch Time

Crunch TimeOur chapels, congregations, and Circuit as a whole, are struggling.
This is a decisive time.
We must prayerfully adapt and change in the ways we worship and live out our faith.

Methodist Statements on Black Lives Matter and racial equality

Black or white finger print

Falmouth and Gwennap Methodist Circuit
Statement on racism
We cannot fail to have noticed the global outcry, prompted by the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police. This has served to highlight the ongoing injustice experienced by Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic people in the United Kingdom.
We, the Falmouth and Gwennap Methodist Circuit, stand alongside the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement and say that it is no longer sufficient to simply express our regret about this injustice, rather we need to act. Our faith requires us to speak out and play our part in building a society where all are treated equally, regardless of skin colour, background, gender or any other human-made barrier that we know have no place in God's Kingdom.
We recognise that such injustice exists within our churches, communities and civil institutions and find hope in the number of people from all backgrounds that have taken part in peaceful protests locally. We acknowledge that many of us have benefitted from a privilege we neither recognised nor fully understand, and we commit to playing our part in the radical change required to create a 'level playing field' on which all people have an equal opportunity to thrive.
