About

Bishop’s Stortford Baptist Church (BSBC) is an active, vibrant group of Christians who meet regularly together to worship God, hear from his word and spend time with one another in fellowship.

BSBC is a family. The church is not defined by where it meets, rather it is defined as a family of believers, committed to Christ, to one another and to the service of God in the world.

On Sundays, we meet at the Baptist Church Centre, Twyford Road, Bishop’s Stortford, CM23 3LJ.

BSBC is part of Baptists Together. BSBC is a Fairtrade Church.

Our beliefs

Bishop’s Stortford Baptist Church is an evangelical, purpose driven church, seeking to be a community of believers living according to the Bible’s teaching.

Meet the team

Here you will find useful contact details for key people at BSBC. The Ministers and Elders are responsible for the oversight of the church’s life and vision which the Deacons then have responsibility for implementing. You will also find contact details for the team at the Church Office.

Mission support

Over the years God has called a number of people from this fellowship to serve Him in the world Church. They go on our behalf and it is our privilege to support them in the ministries that they fulfil.

Community initiatives

We believe that we are here to make a difference in our community and to serve our neighbours. BSBC runs or is involved with a variety of events and projects which are aimed at bringing Christianity to our community in practical and exciting ways.
