New Minister!

2007-09-10T21:14:00.003+01:00

The Rev. Leslie Spence moved to our neighbouring Lurgan circuit in July '07, so the Rev. Liz Hewitt (who had already been working with the Methodist churches in Moira and Maghaberry) now has responsibility for Glenavy and Craigmore.

So please welcome Liz when you see her next, and remember to pray for her - looking after four churches that all meet at the same time on a Sunday morning means she will appreciate your encouragement.

Visit Us - You're Welcome!

2007-09-10T21:10:00.002+01:00

We'd like to invite you to visit Craigmore some time soon - perhaps you've heard about the Youth Club, or you're coming to a special event, or maybe you're thinking you'd like to try out a church in the area...

Whatever it is, please don't stress about what you're wearing or whether you'll do things the right way - come as you are, slip in the back if you're nervous, and have a cup of coffee afterwards with us. We hope you'll find Craigmore to be a place you can call home.

But first you'll need to find us! Following are a couple of maps and some directions...

Coming from Aghalee, Craigavon or Belfast:

[1] Take the M1 Motorway to the Moira junction (Jnt. 9) - come off the roundabout at the A26 (Airport/Glenavy) exit.
[2] Drive past the BP Station: Take second left (sign for Aghalee) onto the Soldierstown Road.
[3] At end, turn right down hill... This becomes a long up-hill... When you start coming down again be ready to turn left onto Orken Lane (sign for Craigmore Methodist Church).
[4] Follow the winding lane until you find The Hollow Road on the left. Turn onto this road - the church is immediately on the left, up hill.

Coming from Lower Ballinderry/Nutts Corner Roundabout (Airport, etc) to Orken Lane:
** Take the A26 (Moira/Glenavy) exit from the roundabout.
** After about seven miles you'll pass a Texaco filling station on the right - Take the next right (signed for Lower Ballinderry).
** At the end of this road turn left - after about one mile you'll see the sign for Craigmore Methodist Church/Orken Lane on the right. Now see point [4] above.
