Welcome to Shefford Baptist Church where we believe that everyone matters to God. We are a friendly local community church who welcome people from all walks of life.
Welcome and Belonging
In this church community we aim to welcome everyone, and enable everyone to participate, just as they are.
Our building has step-free access through the side door, an induction loop for those with hearing aids, and accessible toilets. Our friendly welcomers are on hand to help you with these. There is a quiet space available for anyone who needs it, at any time. We can provide large-print words.
Our services are designed to enable everyone to worship. Our traditional services contain songs, prayers for others, Bible reading, and a talk, all led from the front. Our alternative services (1st and 3rd Sundays) may contain prayers, discussion, and creative activities which involve everyone. Our communion bread is gluten free and wine is non-alcoholic. We always start with notices, where we tell you what you can expect in that service, and in every service childrens' learning activities are available.
Our events are designed to enable everyone to participate. Do talk to us about your needs.
In all things we aim to: Think (be aware of needs), Ask (what each individual needs) and Act. We want to follow Jesus by loving others just as he loves each of us.

Our Mission Statement
