We are affiliated to the Association of Grace Baptist Churches South East and we hold to the historic teachings of the Christian faith: in particular the biblical teaching of the Trinity (God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit), the full deity of Christ, the full authority and reliability of the Bible, and the need for personal salvation which can only be met by faith in Christ and His death for our sins on the Cross and resurrection from the dead. Everyone who confesses Christ as Lord and Saviour is encouraged to be baptised in water by full immersion. The beliefs of the church are rooted in the biblical and evangelical doctrines of grace: saved by Christ alone, through faith alone, revealed in Scripture alone, and all for God`s glory alone.
Our meetings are open to everyone and we would love to see you visit us! In a typical service, we seek to worship God as we sing a mixture of hymns and songs (old and new), read the Bible, pray and listen to God`s Word (the Bible) being preached and taught. If you don`t have a Bible, you are welcome to use one of our church Bibles. The translation we use is the New international Version. On the first Sunday of the month, we also celebrate Jesus` death and resurrection in The Lord`s Supper (communion service) which follows the morning service.
There is no dress code, so please come as you are. Tea and coffee are provided after the Sunday morning service, free of charge. If you have any further questions which are not answered on this website, please contact us (details on the “Contact Us” page). Thank you and God bless you.
