About Us

World Mission

We believe that a fundamental part of our church's life is to have effective links with specific projects in other parts of the world.

  • We support the BMS World Mission which is the main agency through which Baptists from the UK are able to serve in other parts of the world. We have particular involvement in the work of a Neil & Amanda Roper in Peru and in the Action Team programme in which young people are able to spend a gap year with BMS.

  • One of our members has set up a mission programme in the rural district of Vizianagaram in Andhra Pradesh, India details are on their website: www.mercymissionvzm.in

    The account of our team visit in 2011 will be found here.

  • Our young people visited Romania in July 2009 to spend time at Project Ruth on the edge of Bucharest, which provides education for those who would otherwise not attend a school.
    A further trip is taking place in July 2011.  Keep up-to-date with the team blog.
