Richmond Town Methodist Church

About

Richmond Town Methodist Church (RTMC) is a historic Methodist congregation on Kingston Road in Richmond Town, Bengaluru, which began in 1875 and is celebrating 150 years of ministry from 1875 to 2025. The church traces its origins to early Methodist missionaries, among them the American preacher William Taylor, who helped establish a place of worship in this part of the city. Today RTMC describes itself as a Christ-centred family of faith devoted to worship, fellowship and serving others, led by a pastoral team that includes a senior pastor, an associate pastor and an assistant pastor. Church life is organised through several ministries, including Christian nurture and education, a Sunday school, the Methodist Youth Fellowship, music and choir, missions and evangelism, social concern, lay activity and media and communication. The church also streams online services, publishes a monthly newsletter called The LightHouse and runs a virtual Bible study. For anyone looking for a Methodist church in Richmond Town, a Christian church near Brigade Road and Shanthinagar, or an English worship service in central Bengaluru, RTMC welcomes visitors and new members.
