Crockenhill Baptist Church

Mission Statement

A Church committed to the Bible and to Prayer

At the heart of our ministry is teaching the Bible as God’s key instrument for proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord and for building up His followers on earth.

Our worship is the offering of our entire lives to God in holiness and service.

Our main meetings are:

1)     to encourage each other to feed ourselves on God’s word and to give ourselves to prayer, so that we may worship God better in our lives, and

2)     to draw in non-Christians without embarrassment, so that we might introduce them to the good news of Jesus Christ.

A Church committed to mature discipleship for every member

Some people are paid to organise the church’s life, but all are ministers of the gospel.

We therefore also meet in smaller groups to build one another up in the faith, and to encourage one another to serve others according to our differing abilities and opportunities, for His glory, so that we might all show the love of Christ as well as proclaim it.

We believe that God means us to grow, individually and as a church, that growth is change, and change may be painful. For the sake of bringing the gospel to our contemporaries, however, we would willingly face that challenge, subject to the Bible’s clear teaching.
