The Free Methodist Church (FMC) was first established in the United States in 1860, in England in 1971 and the congregation at Carnforth which grew out of the Lancaster Church was organised as a Free Methodist Church on 6th December 1995. The Free Methodist Church is committed to the will of God as revealed in the Bible and is Wesleyan in doctrine and practice. They view local churches as mission outposts and pastors are appointed not only to serve a local congregation but to also to evangelise whole communities.
Mission
The mission of the FMC is to make known to all people everywhere God's call to wholeness through forgiveness and holiness in Jesus Christ and to invite into membership and equip for ministry all who respond in faith.
Vision
The vision of the FMC is to be a healthy bilbical community of holy people, multiplying disciples, leaders, groups and congregations.
