The Darlington Circuit is the network of Methodists in Darlington and the surrounding area. We are made up of thirteen varied congregations meeting in various places from the centre of Darlington to the village of North Cowton. We are served by a team of ordained ministers, lay workers and circuit stewards, led by Superintendent Minister, Rev. Phil Clarke.
The emphasis of the Darlington Circuit is on mission, and is expressed in our Mission Statement from 1 Corinthians Chapter 9 verse 22:
"By all means to save some."
