Banbridge Methodist Church has been celebrating its 150th anniversary in 2021.
Although COVID-19 has disrupted most of the planned events during the year, the Church held a book launch in the Greenaway Hall on Saturday 11 December.
The anniversary book is written by one of its members, Dr Fiona McKelvey who has uncovered much unknown history about the soldiers who served and died during the two world wars and every minister who has served the congregation from 1859 to 2021.
The book costs £5 and all proceeds are going to church funds. Copies are available from Rev Andrew Gibson – please phone 028 4066 2234, or alternatively email: andrew.gibson@irishmethodist.org.
