Self Help UK -
As a Baptist Church we do not baptise or christen babies or small children, as we believe baptism is a part of an individuals personal commitment to Christ.
However, we welcome any parents who want to bring their child to church to say 'thank you' to God, to pray for the child and to ask for God's blessing and help for them as parents in their task of bringing up their family.
Follow the link on the left for more information about such dedications

Pastoral Care
We operate a pastoral care network, which tries to ensure that everyone in the congregation is linked into a support network of caring Christians should the need arise.
Marriage
The church is described in the Bible as “the bride of Christ”, so marriage is an especially important ‘life event’ for us.
We would love you to start of your married life with us. Find out more on the Marriage page
