Story

For more than forty-five years, the Orthodox Parish of St John of Kronstadt has worshipped in borrowed buildings across Bath. Today, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a permanent home by purchasing Beechen Cliff Methodist Church. Our vision is bigger than acquiring a building.

We want to create The Meeting Place: a welcoming home for Orthodox worship, a centre for community life, and a place where beauty, learning and hospitality enrich the life of Bath. Together, we can preserve an important community building while creating something that will serve future generations. Help us create The Meeting Place.

If we are successful, your gift may be used both for the acquisition and renovation and fitting out of Beechen Cliff Methodist Church. Whether or not we purchase the church, your gift will be placed in a restricted fund set aside for the lease or purchase, renovation and/or fitting out of any current or future church building and meeting rooms.
