Sunday Morning Service 

Our Sunday morning service at Craigmore is great for all ages and typically lasts just over an hour. It is led either by a Methodist Minister, a Lay Preacher or an invited speaker. Our services are simple and straightforward. 

Our Sunday morning services are held each Sunday at 10:30am. 
Afterwards, you're very welcome to join us for a cuppa.

The young people usually come into church for the first 15-20 minutes so we can meet as one big Church family before leaving to go to Sunday School in the attached Church Hall.

Sunday School


Young people are an important and inspirational part of the life of our Church. 


We have a large and vibrant Sunday School. It's staffed by committed Christians and provides a safe and structured opportunity for children and young people to learn about God and to explore their Christian faith. All Sunday School Leaders are approved to work with children. We follow the strict, safeguarding policy of the Methodist Church in Ireland. 


Our Sunday School meets weekly. The young people share in the first 15 to 20 minutes of the main church service that starts at 10:30am before going out with their teachers to the hall for Sunday School.

Prayer Meeting 


We meet for a virtual prayer meeting on Zoom every Thursday evening at 8 pm. 


For log in details to our Zoom prayer meeting, please email our Minister Rev Philip Gallagher at philip.gallagher@irishmethodist.org  


What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer!


Joseph M. Scriven (1819-1886)
