General Information & News

Visitors and those new to Teddington Methodist Church A leaflet “Teddington Methodist Church – A Warm Welcome for the Whole Community” is available on request. We welcome anybody who may wish to become a member of TMC.

Dear Friends,

I'm pleased to announce that the circuit has appointed a new Families and Community Worker to build on the work previously done by Bron Coveney and Sharon Davis. Sam Chandler from the East Molesey church community will take up the role on 10th September.

Sam will be in touch with church senior stewards after she starts work to see how she can offer support to each church. The job is part-time, so tasks will have to be focussed on those areas that most fit with Sam's skills, as well as giving her scope for developing new work.

Please do pray for Sam Chandler as she prepares to become the Circuit Families and Community Worker.

Rev David Innes. 

Churches Together in Teddington.

25th August, Please pray for National Physical Laboratory Christian Fellowship.

1st September, Please pray for St Mary with St Alban Church. 

Circuit Prayers:

25th August, Please pray for

Hampton Methodist Church and continued growth of their Bible Fellowship Group.

Orpington and Chislehurst Circuit.

Lithuania – freedom for the gospel, but also freedom for materialism and immorality such as substance abuse and prostitution. Spiritual transformation is needed. Pray for new life in the church. Spiritual transformation must accompany economic growth.

1st September, Please pray for

Hanworth Methodist Church and for other churches worshipping at Hanworth.

Purley Circuit.

Luxembourg – Catholic by tradition and culture, but few actively practice their faith. Pray that they may encounter and be transformed by the living Christ. More of the Bible needs to be translated into the local language. Foreign workers show little interest in spiritual things. 

Police Scam update SCAMS HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) have issued an urgent scam warning after customers are receiving fake HMRC letters. The new scam letters are asking individuals to "verify" their "financial information" via email.  Do not give out any financial information online such as bank details or passwords. 

TELEPHONE SCAMS. Police have recently received two reports of telephone scams targeted at elder residents on Cannon Hill Ward in Merton. In both incidents a well-spoken male has called victim's landline claiming their bank accounts have been compromised and arranged for a courier to collect the cards. BANKS WILL NEVER CALL CUSTOMERS DIRECTLY OR REQUEST PIN NUMBER DETAILS.

Also see separate attachment by email, or copies available on the table near the car park, regarding other types of scams.
