Since September 2022 there has been a new church in the York Circuit! Villages Together Methodist Church was officially inaugurated at its first service, and subsequent church council, on Sunday 4th in Huby.

For many years now the congregations in Alne, Huby, Husthwaite, Stillington and Tholthorpe have been meeting together for worship and fellowship. After much discussion, prayer and support from the circuit, we began to move towards becoming one new church with one combined membership.

Please do come out to join us sometime (but do look closely at your plan to see where we are meeting, as we are going to be moving round our different buildings in rotation). Finally, we would ask you to pray for the success of our new adventure.

Please see the Plan for details of when and where our services are.

Methodism in Huby and Sutton on the Forest

The Chapel in Huby was built in 1894 and the school room was added in 1901 . In 1982 Sutton on the forest Methodist Chapel was closed , and was sold in 1984. With the help of proceeds from the sale, work began in 1989 to renovate and modernise Huby Chapel to make it more suitable for modern day requirements. In 1990 there was a celebration Service when the building was filled to capacity. Since then, and with the closure of the Women's Institute Hall, the Chapel has been used for many village activities as well as a growing number of Chapel Groups.

We look forward to the next 100 years in our villages of Huby and Sutton and thank God for all He has done.
