2022 The Year of Transformation
Romans 12:1-2 (NIV)
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
If you’re new to church or would like to connect with us more, we’d love to hear from you. Please let us know you’ve joined us today and can we contact you about your visit and let to you know more about church life.
As of Easter Sunday (4th April) we are live in our Sanctuary once again! We are blessed to have the opportunity to worship more freely, as of 19th July, and we are now able to welcome people without taking bookings. We have a few recommendations for those wishing to attend church, which we believe will benefit all. Click here to find out more information. If you are unable to join us in person, please continue to gather with us on YouTube every Sunday Morning at 10.30am, as we livestream our service live from the Sanctuary. May God bless you as meet with Him through our online services.

COVID-19 — Important information about Sunday services and weekly church activities
We are living in challenging times with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The health and wellbeing of our congregation is our priority. Please be assured that BHBC is closely monitoring and acting on the guidance provided by the UK Government regarding the coronavirus and social distancing recommendations.
Faith groups have now been advised by the Government to avoid meeting physically to help halt the spread of the Coronavirus. This applies not only to Sunday services but all associated gatherings throughout the week and churches are urged to follow Government advice.
Recognising the potential implications of this move, Health Secretary Matt Hancock spoke of “the deepest regret and heaviest of heart” in confirming the news to the House of Commons on Monday night (16 March).
It is with heavy hearts that we have to announce the closure all ministries, meetings and Sunday services until further notice.
We will however meet as a church online from this Sunday. The service may look different each week but we are seeking to ensure that we remain connected as a church in creative ways given the restrictions.
To connect with us on Sunday Mornings at 10.30 please type Buckhurst Hill Baptist Church into the search box on YouTube. Please do join us online!
More information will be published on our church website and Facebook. We are also looking at creative ways to maintain connection as a church and this will be communicated in due course. Let us keep everyone in our prayers.
Regular updates about this and other initiatives will be on our website and on Facebook so we do encourage you to check these regularly.
We would urge you to keep up to date with government guidelines found at gov.uk and particularly with the guidelines on social distancing and household isolation. The current advice is that households must self-isolate for 14 days from the time of any member developing symptoms.

COVID-19: guidance on social distancing and for vulnerable people – GOV.UK
We are trusting the Lord that His Kingdom will continue to advance and that the church will experience His blessing. As the leadership of the church we remain committed to fulfilling the vision which the Lord has given us and we are working on plans to enable us to encourage and support one another. As God’s people we must remain true and faithful to the Lord and develop ways of connecting by phone or through technology.
Let us be praying that the virus be contained and conquered and for the Church to rise up in the power of the Lord so that throughout all this we will continue to be the Church of Christ. We stand in Jesus’ victory and are seated with Him in heavenly places, protected under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91).
God bless and keep you.
JESUS HOPE FOR TOMORROW
