West Howe Baptist Church began in 1954
when a Sunday school was established, meeting in what is now Oakmead
School
with over 300 children attending. The current church hall was
built while the estate was being developed and was opened on October
13th 1956.
We are a church family with people
from all sorts of backgrounds who together seek to worship God in a
lively and informal manner in which we hope anyone of any age can feel
at home. Our desire is to honour God in our worship, learn
together through studying his word, strengthen ourselves in communion,
care for one another and share the good news of His love with those
about us. Our aim is to "grow upwards and to reach outwards in
the love of Christ".
