Rural Mission Sunday

Held on a suitable Sunday in July

. . . or whenever it is helpful for you.

Visit the Arthur Rank Centre to explore their new resources for Rural Mission Sunday 2026 – join us in celebrating your unsung stars from your local community.

The Arthur Rank Centre feel passionately about the importance of small rural churches: they know rural churches are missional and want to celebrate that fact.

Rural Mission Sunday provides a real opportunity for rural churches to celebrate who they are and give thanks for their wider community.

For further rural mission inspiration, please see the Methodist Church's Rural Mission and Ministry pages, with a video introduction by Sarah Hulme.
