Welcome to the area of our website especially for smaller churches.

A high percentage of Christians across the UK experience this valid expression of God’s Kingdom every Sunday in congregations with 40 people or less.  Out of 2000 Baptist churches, approximately half of them are churches of this size.

In this new area will be stories from around our Union to inspire, empathise and encourage. There will be resources to try and links to various websites to help churches in their mission to reach people for Christ.  There will be articles and ideas for leaders, deacons, secretaries and treasurers.  Areas of church life such as worship, discipleship, ministry and mission will be explored as well as practical issues such as buildings, safeguarding and data protection.  Many smaller churches are reaching their community in creative ways which will be shared here.
