The Methodist Church in Milford on Sea has only been in existence since 1961. However, its origins date back to 1909 and the Church building back to 1911.
Their initial meetings were held behind 22 High Street, Milford on Sea, and in 1911 they moved to the current Church building at 108 High Street, Milford on Sea when it opened. The building comprised a Church with a Schoolroom behind it, a vestry, kitchen and toilet.
Over the years there have been numerous changes to the building with the most recent being the refurbishment project that was concluded in 2011 so that the building is fit for purpose.
In December 2024, Milford on Sea Methodist Church was been awarded an Eco Church Bronze Award from A Rocha UK who are a Christian charity working to protect and restore the natural world and committed to equipping Christians and churches in the UK to care for the environment.
Each year, the church works closely with the other churches in Milford on Sea at events such as the services on the Village Green on Good Friday, Songs of Praise at Keyhaven Quay, at Christmas late night shopping, and in the past at the Milford on Sea Arts & Music Festival.
They also hold services at each village church during the Christians Together week and run ecumenical 'Late Lent' groups in the autumn.
Milford on Sea Methodist Church hold their gatherings on Sunday at 10:45am each week.
In addition, the church has two "At Home" discussion and support groups available for anyone to join on Monday at 7pm and Thursdays at 10:30am, as well as a weekly on-line Prayer Meeting every Tuesday morning from 8am.
