Tabor Independent Methodist Church

AFTER a few weeks of feeling poorly, it was good to see Mrs Margaret West back in action again.

Margaret led the most recent service, with the theme being ‘Jesus’s giving meaning and purpose to life’.

Tabor continues to hold fortnightly services, with the next one at 11am on February 1, when we welcome a return visit from Rev Ian Souter. All are welcome to any of our services or events, details of which are on the noticeboard outside the church in North Road.
