Holland Village Methodist Church

Gazing at the Holland Village Methodist Church, have you ever pondered its relatively recent origins? Holland Village Methodist Church, nestled within the grounds of ACS International, isn’t steeped in centuries of history like some other churches. Its story begins in 2004, with an invitation. Barker Road Methodist Church was asked to establish a presence at the school. This led to the creation of the Holland Village Preaching Point in July 2007. The first service took place on July 8th, 2007, marking the start of a new spiritual community. The church grew steadily over the next five years. This growth culminated in its official establishment as Holland Village Methodist Church on July 8th, 2012, exactly five years after its first service. This relatively young church thrives. The vibrant mosaic logo of Holland Village Methodist Church reflects its diverse and inclusive community. The blue symbolizes water baptism and forgiveness. The red represents the blood of Christ and the fire of the Holy Spirit. The mosaic pieces, in different shapes and sizes, represent the diverse individuals who make up the church. This visual reminder emphasizes that everyone belongs and has a valuable contribution to make. The location within ACS International plays a key role in the church’s identity and mission. The church sees itself as a “beacon of truth and light” for the school community. It offers services in English at 10:30 am and has a Filipino Fellowship gathering at 12:00 pm within the staff lounge. Holland Village Methodist Church, though young, is deeply rooted in faith and service, striving to nourish and help flourish every generation.
