Hackleton Baptist Church

Hackleton Baptist Church We are a Church who says WOW about God! How do we know? We read The Bible which is His message to us, this keeps us grounded in the Truth of Jesus.

We experience His presence in our lives. He loves us and we learn to communicate with God through prayer. A William Carey Church. William Carey (1761–1834) is the most well-known missionary in Baptist history. Carey is called the father of the modern missions movement in the English-speaking world because he was the first Baptist missionary overseas. He is revered in many parts of the world, espec

ially in India. William Carey became a Christian in Hackleton and was one of the founding members of Hackleton Baptist Church. He taught himself Greek and Hebrew whilst in Hackleton. He helped campaign for the abolishment of slavery in the West Indies, and was key to ending sati (widow burning) in India. Once he had learnt Sanskrit, he wrote up many traditional Indian tales before translating the Bible into Hindi and other Indian dialects. He, and his team, set up printing presses so all the work could be distributed. They started schools in India for both boys and girls. Carey taught local languages and customs to the Dutch military and trades people. (The East India Company didn’t want to know!) Carey was also a keep botanist and sent many plant species back to England.

With thanks to residents of Hackleton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom, Coffee at Carey and parishioners of Hackleton Baptist Church, who collected and wrapped presents for children this Christmas, we were able to pass these onto Northamptonshire Children's Trust who have distributed amongst families who would otherwise potentially have nothing.

This is the feedback recieved from the Trust:

"Thank you so much for all the gifts , they have already been distributed to families that are struggling this year. One family said " wow thank you , I haven't got them anything yet as my money has all gone on gas" so thank you to you all."
