Niton

Niton Methodist Church has been part of village life since 1864, sharing God’s love with the community for more than 160 years.

Back in 2000, the congregation had become small and many members were finding it hard to keep things going. They made the difficult decision to close—but they also prayed earnestly for God’s help. And He answered! New people came along, the church family grew again, and life returned to the building.

Today, in 2025, our numbers may be smaller than they once were, but our enthusiasm certainly isn’t. God continues to draw new people into our warm and welcoming church family.

We love greeting visitors, and we often have regular holidaymakers who choose to worship with us whenever they’re in the area.

There is some parking available at the church, with additional parking close by. There is a small threshold at the door but it is wheelchair accessible in addition to accessible toilets.

Our need for God’s leading, guidance, and the empowering of the Holy Spirit is as strong as ever. We know that “without Him, we can do nothing,” but with Him “all things are possible.” Our desire is to bless our community, help people come to know Jesus, and see lives transformed by His love.

We do this through our personal faith and through various church activities, including a weekly online prayer meeting, a ladies’ group that meets twice a month, and a combined Bible study and shared meal.

We are also delighted that our church hall hosts weekly youth groups run by the South Wight Area Youth Partnership (SWAY). You can find out more about their work at https://www.southwightyouth.org/

Worship Services at Niton Methodist Church normally begin around 1030 a.m. on Sundays with tea/coffee and biscuits.
