ENFIELD BAPTIST CHURCH
We provide a variety of activities for our own church family and for the wider community throughout the week. Our aim is to show the love of Jesus Christ in both word and deed and to bring people into a closer relationship with Him as living Lord. Central to our work and witness is our regular programme of Christian worship on Sundays. Anyone is warmly welcome to attend any of our services.
