A BACKGROUND TO OUR BELIEFS

Methodists and other Christians remember John Wesley’s heart-warming experience of God in a church on Aldersgate Street. Wesley was already a priest in the Church of England and had travelled to America as a missionary, which had not gone at all well. On the voyage there his ship was caught up in a storm and he was impressed by the calm faith of a group of Moravian Christians, who prayed and sang and showed no fear amidst such danger.

Not long afterwards he felt led, reluctantly, to attend worship at a Moravian church on Aldersgate Street in London. Despite his reluctance, it was during this service he felt his “heart strangely warmed” – he experienced God’s love in a most personal and life-giving way. Until then he had known God in his mind but not in his heart, now he understood the value of a personal experience of God that would bring assurance to the believer. Paul’s words in verse 5 point us all to the possibility of God pouring love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit. Wesley, who began the Methodist movement, was convinced that all people could know the love of God. This is clear through the “Four alls” that are still quoted by Methodist people today.

*All people need to be saved. *All people can be saved. *All people can know they are saved. *All people can be saved to the uttermost.

Paul has something similar to say in Romans, making it clear that Jesus did not die just for those who were righteous but that he “died for the ungodly” (v. 6). All people fall within the scope of God’s love and Christ’s saving action, and all people can experience this for themselves as God’s love fills their hearts with love through the Holy Spirit.

Norton Methodist Church History

A brief history of our premises

January 1908. The inaugural church formation meetings conducted by the evangelist and preacher Gipsy Smith. In March 1908 Norton Mission Meetings held in a shed at the junction of Norton Road and Cashio Lane. The shed cost £20!

October 1914. The first part of the building was built at a cost of £239. £13.50 of this came from the sale of the shed! A new extension was built in July 1924 and the present church and rear rooms were opened in 1934.In 1996 the premises were subject to an arson attack, and partially destroyed. A rebuilding programme commenced, the restoration costing nearly £200,000: an additional £300,000 was spent over the following eight years to modernise and further extend the premises for community use.

There are now two halls and two rooms available for use with full kitchen and toilet facilities. The premises have been home of the Letchworth Arcadians for over 40 years and are extensively used by a number of under fives groups and other organisations. The premises are managed by a part-time manager and supported by volunteers.

Norton Methodist Church Historical Photos

The power of Christian prayer With us night and morning
By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered, and confidently waiting come what may, we know that God is with us night and morning, and never fails to greet us each new day. Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented, still evil days bring burdens hard to bear; Oh, give our frightened souls the sure salvation for which, O Lord, You taught us to prepare. And when this cup You give is filled to brimming with bitter suffering, hard to understand, we take it thankfully and without trembling, out of so good and so beloved a hand. Yet when again in this same world You give us the joy we had, the brightness of Your Sun, we shall remember all the days we lived through, and our whole life shall then be Yours alone.
