Welcome to Thorpe Bay Methodist Church!

Hi, I’m Rev. Peter Moorhouse, minister at Thorpe Bay Methodist Church, and I also share responsibility for Chalkwell Park and Hadleigh Methodist Churches in the Southend and Leigh Circuit. I’ve been in ministry since 2007 and was ordained in 2009. Before coming here, I served in the Oldham and Saddleworth Circuit. I’m originally from Hale in Cheshire, but my journey with Jesus has taken me all over Britain.

I’m married to Natalie, and we have two sons, Isaac and Jude. In my spare time, I enjoy watching sports, particularly the NFL — I've supported the Chicago Bears for 35 years — and of course, I’m a lifelong Manchester United fan. God bless.

Prayer of the Day
A prayer that we share one another's burdens

Since the dawn of the day, O God,
my sisters and brothers have sat with you.
In joy and distress,
in confidence and fear.
As we seek to be one with you, Lord,
we seek to be one with them.
Scripture tells us that, as we bear one another’s burdens,
we fulfil the law of Christ.
Show us what it means to share the burdens
of your planet and its many people;
to think and to act for good
for the whole of your worldwide family,
especially where our advantages
give us greater power
to build a better world for others.
We sit with you now
as our sisters and brothers sit with you,
under the one sun,
made one in your Son.
Amen.
