Five minutes from London Gatwick Airport Minister: Rev Christine Keyte
The church is more than just a building; it is a living
community that has many members with a diversity of gifts. This web page is very
much a part of that. As you view these pages you will find a range of different
activities and people. Here at Horley Methodist Church, we desire and strive
together to better live out what it means to be a Christian in today's world.
Our focus and hopes as a church are directly related to the experiences we have
had as we walk together as a congregation. Friendships are a big part of who we
are. Our sense of responsibility to our wider community is challenging us to
service through our church development program.
As we as a congregation grapple with what it really means to
go "into all the world and preach the good news to all creation – Mark 16:15 NIV”,
we are striving to use our different gifts and to work together to make a
difference in Christ. As a visitor to this webpage, my prayer is that you will
give Him all the glory!

2 Peter 1:5-8 (03-14-10)
Make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Thoughts on Today's Verse...Wow! What a message. God wants us to be productive in our lives. He wants us to have more than just head knowledge; he wants us to put it to work in our lives and be effective and productive with it. But for me, I've got to put out some effort and try to grow in these qualities. Peter is saying, "Okay folks, God wants you to get after it and make a difference through your life!" I'm ready! Let's begin today. My Prayer...Holy God, I am going to put out the effort to grow in your grace. Please bless my efforts and receive them as my heartfelt appreciation for your loving me when I was unlovable and redeeming me when I was lost. I want to be productive to your glory in my life with Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen.
