Baptist Times News Round-up - 21 August 2026
Welcome to the Baptist Times News Round-up for August, which contains the usual mix of stories, baptisms and other notices.
In previous years we haven't always produced a Round-up in this holiday season - but we received so many baptism stories over the past month it would have been remiss not to. If possible please pray for all those who have been baptised and the churches now discipling them. And if you have your own story to share, do please contact us
here.
While we celebrate new life in Christ, we also give thanks for the lives of those who have served so faithfully, captured in one of our stories, an obituary and further notices. There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens...
With every blessing,
Paul Hobson
