Welcome to Goxhill Church
The village of Goxhill is a widespread but rapidly expanding residential community for two thousand inhabitants of all ages. There is a village primary school and there are also residential and nursing homes in the village. The Methodist Church was built before the turn of the century and is in generally good condition.. The morning services are in the Chapel, which can accommodate two hundred people. The Ladies Rendezvous Club meets monthly. The Church endeavours to play an active part in the community, e.g. a regular luncheon club. The annual Open Gardens event is supported by a large number of people.The School Room is frequently used for children's parties. There is a meeting for children on a Friday after school and this is the equivalent of a Sunday School, it is ecumenical and there is a family service on the first Sunday of each month in the Church and on the third Sunday in the Chapel. Relations with the Anglicans are very good and there are joint meetings to plan such events as Christmas, Easter and the Share Jesus Mission (held in August 2001). In addition there is a monthly luncheon club and an annual 'Horse & Rider' service which raises money for riding for the disabled.
