Stamp-mad Methodist minister, the Rev Robin Searles, will soon be posting his church around the world.

Mr Searles has designed a first-day cover featuring Frinton Methodist Church which is celebrating its 100th anniversary.

The cover also incorporates a picture by famous American artist, Kenneth Wyatt, featuring John Wesley, the English founder of the Methodist movement.

Methodists around the world are this year celebrating the 300th anniversary of John Wesley's birth at Epworth, Lincolnshire.

The limited edition of 250 copies are to be sent worldwide and hopefully will also be available at the resort's post office.

The cover is due to be released on July 12
