An important announcement regarding our next pastors Andrew and Carolyne Mumford who will be relocating to Hastings and St Leonard’s Baptist Church in the summer. Praise the Lord for this answer to prayer and may that same Lord bless both pastors and church at the beginning of this new chapter.

“ Just to let you know we are on the move! Carolyne and I have received a unanimous call from Hastings and St Leonard’s Baptist Church to be their co-pastors. Therefore my ministry at Broadmead Baptist Church will conclude in August and Carolyne’s placement at Ilford High Road Baptist Church will end in August and we will be moving to the south coast. The church is in East Sussex and is part of the South Eastern Baptist Association. It is an amalgamation of two historic churches: Wellington Square BC ( in the town centre) and St Leonard’s BC, one congregation with two buildings. We would value prayers for our move as we make this transition.”

Thanks for stopping by our page.

Hastings and St Leonard’s Baptist Church has been formed by the legal merger of Wellington Square Baptist Church and St Leonard’s Baptist Church .

We are a small group of Christians praying the Lord will send us a pastor.

There’s lots to do behind the scenes to make our merger work but we believe this is God’s next step for us.

In the meantime we had a great Easter!

Capacity crowd at our Maundy service plus two baptisms on Easter Day and some visitors from the locality, so some encouraging signs of what we hope will be the first shoots of new growth.

Our regular service times
are

Every Sunday morning
10.30 at our St Leonard’s site in Chapel Park Road.

Informal cafe style evening worship on the first and third Sundays each month at 6.30 at our Wellington Square site
