Welcome to the Village Website page for Wolston Baptist Church!

Whether you have lived locally for many years or have just moved to the village...

Welcome to the Chapel!

 

We love to welcome new friends and are quite informal. Come as you are!

Each of us is on a journey of faith, some have been believers for many years and others are returning to faith or just starting out. We all come with our own experiences, questions, wonderings, beliefs and doubts. We hope the Chapel is a place to explore those and to learn together, where we can encourage one another and welcome all who would like to know more of God and be part of a worshipping community.  

 

 

The church is easy to find, very conveniently located right in the village centre, opposite the shops. There are steps at the front, but the entrance at the side gives easy access to those with mobility problems or who use walking frames or wheelchairs. (Please note that while our toilets are on the ground floor and easy to get to, they are not large enough to accommodate a wheelchair).

 

You can find more information about the Chapel, what we believe, our history in the village and current service information on our main website; www.wolstonbaptist.org.uk or by visiting our facebook page.

 


 

Our Weekday Groups...

 

Oasis Coffee Morning

Every Monday morning from 10am to 12 noon, friends old and new gather in the chapel to chat and enjoy light refreshments.

As well as good conversation and company we also have a book stall, a lovely creche and occasionally home-made jams and marmalades – what more could you ask for?

Our Monday morning Oasis is the place to be!

 

Bible Fellowship

Our Bible Fellowship group meets most Mondays at 1.30pm in the Church lounge, we are a friendly group learning together and encouraging each other on the journey. All are welcome to this group, please speak to Theresa if you would like to know more or just pop in on a Monday.

All are welcome to this friendly group, whether you knit, crochet (or would like to learn), or do any other craft. Wool and knitting needles are available, along with tea, coffee and biscuits.

Stay and Play

Every Friday morning from 9.15-10.30am during term-time the Chapel is filled with the sound of children playing and grown-ups chatting. We have plenty of toys to play with, a weekly craft activity, singing time and some parachute fun.
