at Rivercourt Methodist Church is to witness to the calling of the Methodist Church to respond to the gospel of God’s love in Christ. As a church family we seek to live out the calling in worship and in mission to the community.
We are called to witness to the gospel of Christ, which is at the centre of our practice. We offer welcoming, thoughtful and sensitive worship to all ages. We are an inclusive community respecting difference and celebrating diversity. Our multi-national membership reflects our outward-looking vision. We welcome all those who wish to share with us God’s love as expressed by Jesus, wherever they may be on their own spiritual journey.
Rivercourt has been at the heart of the Hammersmith community for nearly 150 years; our building is both a physical landmark in a changing urban landscape and a symbol of continuing spiritual presence. We maintain a place of prayer, solace and spiritual reflection for the community.
We celebrate and share God’s love for all people by:
Exploring faith honestly and with open mind, to witness to our calling in our regular worship, which is open to all. Striving for excellence in how we conduct worship services (welcoming, thoughtful and sensitive to all ages) and how we demonstrate Christ’s love to all fellow worshipers before, during, and after the service. Undertaking regular Biblical teaching and training so that God’s people might grow in their faiths and be equipped to joyfully serve Christ and others to the best of their God-given ability.
Proclaiming the Gospel, in personal witness, in our congregation’s evangelism efforts, and in mission work beyond our congregation.
Offering a place to belong, within our church family, and serving the community, in Hammersmith and this part of West London. Strengthening our relationships with one another so that we are united in Christ. Developing our relationships with the diverse, multi-ethnic groups, religious and non-religious, that use our modern, flexible building. Providing a safe place for people to come together.
Living out Christ’s care and compassion for everyone. Acting as a good neighbour to our community. Continuing our active support for the homeless of West London by hosting a Night Shelter in conjunction with Glass Door.
