What are "Circuits" and "Districts"?

Within the Methodist Church, groups of local churches band together to form "Circuits".  These churches will share ministers, (and possibly other staff), and join together for various special events.  There will be joint services at times, and we support each other in their activities.

St. Paul's is part of the Calderdale Circuit.  You can see what is happening around the circuit by visiting the circuit website:  (Just click on the line below)

Surprise surprise, groups of nearby circuits also band together, this time to form "Districts"!  Our Circuit is part of the Yorkshire West District.  Yes, there is an excellent website for the district, which can be accessed on the link below:
