About the Church
Proclaiming Christ and serving the community
Welcome
We have been ‘Proclaiming Christ and Serving the Community” at the current multi-purpose building since 1982 but a Methodist Church has been at this site from 1867. Whalley Range Methodist Church is part of the Manchester Circuit. Our congregation mainly comprises of local people from Whalley Range, Moss Side and Old Trafford and is one of the largest churches on the circuit. We look forward to welcoming you!
Our calling…

The Church exists to help people to learn and grow as Christians through mutual support and care.
Service
The Church exists to be good neighbours to people in need and to challenge injustice.
Evangelism
The Church exists to make more followers of Jesus Christ.
Whalley Range Methodist is…
a place where people are made welcome and worship is taken seriously.
a place where people study the bible and have conversations about their faith.
a place where children are welcome and where they receive teaching and friendship.
a place where people can care for each other: especially in times of loss and sadness.
a place whose members are involved in the community and make a contribution.
