FAQs

Do I have to be a Christian to attend this church?

No we welcome everyone, whether you believe or not.  We are happy to discuss faith with you and answer your questions and we run regular Alpha courses which are an opportunity to ask questions about God and Jesus and the Christian faith whilst sharing a meal. For more information and dates of our next course click on this link

Do I have to be a Methodist to attend?

Anyone can attend Harrowby lane, you don’t have to be a member to worship with us and can be part of any denomination. 

I heard that the Methodists don’t drink alcohol, would I have to give up drinking if I came to church?

Contrary to popular belief it has never been a requirement of the Methodist church to give up alcohol; although, in the past, it was strongly encouraged.    You will find that some of our members do not drink whilst others like a social drink occasionally.  However we do not allow any alcohol in the church building and the ‘wine’ used when we have Holy Communion is actually red grape juice. 

Is Harrowby Lane Methodist Church Accessible?

Harrowby Lane Methodist Church is step free throughout and has a lift to enable anyone to access the meeting rooms on the first floor.  We also have a disabled toilet, larger print bibles and song books.  If you have any specific questions about accessibility then please contact us  

Our History

Harrowby Lane Methodist Church's first building on Signal Road Grantham

We have been meeting in Grantham since the 1920s, our first building was a wooden shed in Signal Road which was then moved to our current site in the 1950s and subsequently rebuilt as a brick building in the 1960’s.  In 2004 our current building was opened and is used by us as a church and by lots of local groups as a community centre.
