"Welcome!"

I guarantee that you would find a very warm welcome if you came to Merrow Methodist Church.

I looked up the definition of the word ‘welcome’.  It can be either an adjective with four meanings:-

1. Received with pleasure and hospitality into one’s company or home: a welcome guest.
2. Giving pleasure or satisfaction; agreeable or gratifying: a welcome respite from hard work.
3. Cordially or willingly permitted or invited: You are welcome to join us.
4. Used in the expression you're welcome to acknowledge an expression of gratitude.

Or it can be used as a noun with three meanings:-

1. A cordial greeting or hospitable reception given to an arriving person.
2. A reception upon arrival: gave the stranger a friendly welcome.
3. The state of being welcome: Don't overstay your welcome.

At Merrow Methodist Church our welcome is all of these above things and more, for it reflects the extravagant generosity of a loving God.  Come and find out more.

That welcome extends to all - young and older; long established residents or new arrivals to the area; those who seek us out either on the street or on the web!  These pages provide fuller information - but don't just take my word for it - come along and discover the church on Bushy Hill Drive for yourself.

Should you have any questions do send an e-mail.  We want to hear from you.

God bless,

Alan
