Truro Methodist Church is located right in the city centre and so has unique opportunities for Ministry to the retail, business and governance sectors of the city. Although Truro is a small city, it still experiences the challenges and opportunities associated with city life and living; challenges and opportunities which mean we are able to share in outreach ministry right from our own premises. We host Truro Street Pastors each week, and also running our own community café – Sambells – from the front of the Church.

Truro Methodist Church is a member of the Inclusive Church Network, a registered Warm Welcome Space and has been awarded the Silver eco-church award.

Our premises are extensively used by church and community groups, and this ministry is set to grow as Kemeneth (our community hub) comes on stream in the Autumn of 2026. Truro Methodist is the base for the Gospel Table – an NPNP Circuit Project that seeks to remove the traditional barriers that separate people and communities and to set ‘tables of grace’ outside the traditional models of church.

We have an active online presence including weekly live-streamed worship each Sunday

We are committed to being –

“a church which celebrates and affirms every person and does not discriminate. We will continue to challenge the church wherever it discriminates against people on the grounds of disability, economic power, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, learning disability, mental health, neurodiversity, or sexuality. We believe in Church which welcomes and serves all people in the name of Jesus Christ; which is scripturally faithful; which seeks to proclaim the Gospel afresh for each generation; and which, in the power of the Holy Spirit, allows all people to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Jesus Christ.” (Inclusive Church Mission Statement)

We are holders of the Eco-Church Silver Award which recognises the journey we are on as a Church towards being good stewards of creation. But there is always so much more to do and so much more which can be done. Our Church Council receives regular updates that challenge our perception and practice, offering further adaptations that we can make to further the eco mission of the church.

What’s happening at Truro Methodist Church

SAFEGUARDING

The Methodist Church, along with the whole Christian community, believes each person has a value and dignity which comes directly from God’s creation in God’s own image and likeness. Christians see this as fulfilled by God’s re-creation of us in Christ. Among other things, this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image of God and therefore to protect them from harm.
