Beacons of Hope

Our vision as a movement is to grow healthy churches in relationship for God mission. We believe our churches are called to be Beacons of Hope in their communities, sharing the good news of Jesus in the places he has put us. Our Union of over 1800 churches is supported by staff in thirteen regional associations and four specialist teams based in Didcot, Oxfordshire. Our six Baptist Colleges prepare men and women for ministry and offer ongoing development and training.
