The Baptist Church

Church Meeting

What also makes a Baptist church a little different, are the church meetings for business which are held over the year. Usually, people join the church as a member, and this gives them a chance to go to the church meeting, where many decisions are made about the life of the church - everyone has the chance to have a say!

The People

A Baptist church is led by a Senior Minister. You may have other Ministers with different jobs, it depends on the size of the church.

Baptist church

There are also Deacons, who often look after the church building and the money that comes into the church. Money is given largely by the members of the church each week.

There may be a Leadership Council who look after the people and what they believe. In most churches these people would be called Elders.

Then there are the members of the church, and numbers of these are different in each church.
