Springdale people

If you visit us at Springdale then you might like to look out for the minister, lay worker and stewards who will be happy to help you out. The photographs below are to help you find them!

You can read more about the role of the church stewards on the Methodist Church website. Our stewards work in pairs; the rows below reflect this. If you are new to Springdale and visting us, please make yourself known to one of the stewards on duty. They all wear a badge (shown on the right) to make them easy to identify.
