Missions

Made for More

Empowering and championing young people in our local schools through mentoring and lunch clubs, in order to advocate for young people's mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

Bethel Baptist Church

Bethel Baptist Church is one of our mission partners, whom we support by prayer, finance and practical involvement.  Under the powerful leadership of Revd Samuel Verhaeghe, the church purchased a large property in the middle of the town, and have worked hard to convert it into a church centre.  Their vision is to make this a centre for evangelism, community support, and also support for other churches in the nion of Belgian Baptists.

A group visited us from Middelkerke in September 2017, staying in our homes overnight.  We enjoyed fellowship with a visit to London followed by a curry night and homemade entertainment in the church hall, sharing in Sunday worship and a bring and share lunch at church.

We have taken teams to Middelkerke over a number of years (it's only in the next county  to Essex, you know!) to share in their worship, and to help in practical ways.

Baptist Union Home Missions

We express our involvement with the Baptist family through our support of Home Missions.  HM exists to help new churches and less well-off churches with funding for buildings, and to help pay for a Minister.  It also funds our HQ at Didcot, and our Regional Ministers.  BUHM helps us to realise that we are not alone - we're part of a big family..........!

Our philosophy is to get involved in missions, rather than just sending a cheque, so wherever possible, we aim to send a team to help with the work of the Christian missions we support.
