East Grinstead Trinity Methodist Church
East Grinstead Trinity Methodist Church (registered charity number 1127649) is a Methodist Christian congregation based in East Grinstead, West Sussex, England. Established as part of the broader Methodist movement, the church operates under the doctrinal and administrative frameworks of the Methodist Church in Britain.

The congregation’s current leadership includes ministers Ben and Charlotte, who emphasize pastoral care and community engagement, reflecting Methodist traditions of social outreach. Their ministry focuses on themes of spiritual resilience and communal support, as highlighted in their public communications[2][4]. The church likely continues the historical Methodist practice of structured worship and lay leadership, evidenced by archival records of quarterly preachers’ plans and financial statements from the mid-20th century[1].

The church building, a brick structure located on Lingfield Road, was photographed in 2023 and represents a typical example of Methodist ecclesiastical architecture in southern England[3]. While specific details about its construction date are not fully documented, the building serves as an active hub for worship and community activities.

As a registered charity, the church’s operations align with its religious objectives, including promoting Christian teachings and providing pastoral services. Historical and contemporary records suggest a continuity of Methodist practices, including lay preaching and congregational involvement in governance.
