Diversity
All those who attend Homerton Baptist Church are just ordinary
people much like anyone else. There are a number of different races, cultures, nations and
backgrounds represented in the church. There is a wide age range from just a few months
old to over 90! All have different abilities and gifts and there are many different
occupations represented.
Unity In Christ
However, all the members have one thing in common. That is that we
all have realised that in Gods sight we are sinners and have asked God to forgive
and accept us by means of the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made for us. It is this common
trust in Jesus Christ that unites us.
Baptism
As a Baptist Church we believe that all who truly trust in Jesus
Christ for salvation should be baptised, by immersion, as a testimony of their faith in
him. It is only those who have been baptised who are full members of the church and can
join us for the communion service which is held after the morning service on the first Sunday of the
month and another is held during the evening service on the third Sunday.
Support
The main source of income for the church is that which is received
at the weekly offerings. These are used to support the Pastor and all other
expenses.
