Linacre Methodist Mission

Linacre Methodist Mission Church and Community building Linacre Methodist Mission was founded in 1898 by Mrs. Elizabeth Walker and her son Mr. Albert James Walker.

A two up - two down house was bought in Langton Road, Litherland, Liverpool. In a matter of months these premises were not adequate to contain the numbers of people joining Langton Road Mission. The house next door was soon purchased...walls were knocked down and; extended church premises were full to bursting with Bible Classes and Services of Worship, but most of all a thriving Sunday School. As

the railway extended through to Waterloo and the docks were expanding into Seaforth there was more and more development taking place around Linacre Road. A great step in faith was taken when the site we occupy now was bought. Langton Road Mission couldn't contain the number of people coming into the Christian faith. In 1900 the first Linacre Wesleyan Mission was built to house a congregation of 500. More and more people came and the work prospered. Countless men, women and children found their Lord in this place and returned week by week to sing their praise and thanksgiving. In 1904 at the Sunday School Anniversary a crowd of three thousand came compelling the Mission authorities to hold the evening service in the open air in front of the Hall. Plans were drawn up to construct a new Mission Hall in front of the existing one to accommodate 1200 and was opened on the 30th September 1905. At the opening service a fire broke out from the ceiling causing much smoke damage and the building had to be evacuated. All hands to the plough for the rest of the evening and through the night....and we were open as usual for business on Sunday
