Barnes Healing Church is a Christian Spiritualist church on White Hart Lane in Barnes in Richmond upon Thames , London . It holds services on Sunday evenings with a guest medium and also a Wednesday evening session of clairvoyance .[1]
History [ edit ]
Josiah Mee, a student at the Wesleyan College on Richmond Hill , collected the money to buy, in 1867, the land on which the church is built; it was open for worship in April 1868, when he sold it to Rev. William Fiddian Moulton and eleven others.[2]
In 1906 the President of the Methodist Church authorised the sale of the church. It was bought by members of the congregation and renamed the Barnes Primitive Methodist Church . In 1949 the church formally re-entered the Methodist Church Union.[2]
Later, the church was again declared to be no longer required for Methodist Trust purposes[3] and it was subsequently purchased by Sidney Ernest Wiles in December 1966. For the next 28 years Wiles ran "Barnes Healing Church" as a Christian Spiritualist Church. It closed when he died in 1994, aged 96.[2]
For the next nine years the church remained closed but was renovated from the proceeds of Wiles' estate . In 2003 a limited company was set up to manage the church and it reopened in April 2003. It is run entirely by volunteers.[2]
