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 for the triumph of God's will

God of grace and hope,
Where the warmth of a smile eclipses the sinister sneer –
Let hope stand triumphant.
Where an act of kindness
undermines an evil deed –
Let hope stand triumphant.
Where a word of peace
silences the terrorist’s threat –
Let hope stand triumphant.
Where difference is diversity
in place of disunity –
Let hope stand triumphant.
Where youth is innocent
and age is wisdom –
Let hope stand triumphant.
Where love is real
and faith is kindled –
Let hope stand triumphant.
Praying that praise and protest
would be partners in our living and in our praying,
that your kingdom may come among us.
Amen.
