STOKE ST. GREGORY BAPTIST
CHURCH OPENS FOR PRIVATE PRAYER
With the lifting of some restrictions on churches, we are opening the Stoke St. Gregory Baptist Church for private prayer. The church will be open for private prayer once or twice a week for the time being. Starting with 8-10am on Sunday 5th July, and 10am till 1pm on Monday 6th July. It will be open every Monday from 10am-1pm. We will let you know about any further Sunday openings.
This creative activity was hosted at the Church.
Since March 2019 we have been joined by Sonya Setchell who has taken up the role of Minister at Stoke St. Gregory Baptist Church.
After a series of meetings and discussions, backed by considerable prayer, we have put together our church profile. The full text can be found here. The summary is as follows.
The Chapel is looking as beautiful as it always does for our Harvest celebrations. Our displays this year were created by people of all ages. The money donated for tea and cake this afternoon, and our offering tomorrow is going to the work of Mission Direct.
A group from the church went for a ‘Refresh, Renew, Resource’ weekend at Lee Abbey back in June. The weather was hot and sunny (some were even heard to say it was too hot!), the fellowship and teaching amazing.
Our church has strong links with overseas mission. We support, through our giving and our praying, the work of BMS World Mission, especially our link missionaries, serving in Asia.
Our minister, Barbara, along with her husband, Bill, will be leaving at the end of September 2017 after 8 years here in Stoke St Gregory.
We thank God for his generosity, through his people, in making possible all that’s been done so far.
'And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him. Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.'
(Colossians 2:6+7)
