Well done to Cannon Street Memorial Baptist Church in Birmingham for the excellent youth work they are d**g.

All the programmes that they run from their Laurel Road Community Sports Centre have had an incredible impact on their community. 👏🏽👏🏽

The Olive Connect youth club in Handsworth transforms the lives of vulnerable teenagers fleeing street violence and bullies. The implications are staggering.

You can read the article here that the Revd. Ali Taylor penned about her reflection on the word ‘Up’ at our recent Assembly. The link for the video is included at the end of the article…

Minister Ali Taylor sensed a gentle prompting to seek God first - and it resulted in a poem simply called Up

Well, our Ministers are off to a stomping start at our Symposium this morning! 🙂

They were singing and dancing out the lyrics of this lovely hymn by Paul Granville Samwell-Smith

“Tis a gift to be simple
'Tis a gift to be free
'Tis a gift to come down
Where we ought to be
And when we find ourselves
In the place just right
We'll be in the valley
Of love and delight

When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend, we shan't be ashamed
To turn, turn will bе our delight
Till by turning, turning, wе come 'round right”

Thank you! We really couldn’t do it without you!

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Robert Newman and his wife Norma of Small Heath Baptist Church.

On 22nd January, Rob received a British Citizen Award (BCA) at a ceremony held at the Palace of Westminster, London. This national honour recognises his almost five decades of continuous voluntary service to communities across Birmingham, delivered on behalf of Small Heath Baptist Church.
Rob’s contribution has been particularly impactful through:

Long-standing youth work at Small Heath Baptist Church, including his involvement with The Boys’ Brigade, supporting generations of young people through mentoring and leadership.

Sustained, practical support for individuals experiencing homelessness - notably through his involvement with Crossroads, the church’s ministry of feeding the homeless in the city centre 3 times a month for the past 33 years.
