About Us
Lancaster Baptist Church isn't a Building but a Group of People
We are . . .
- ordinary people of all ages from many different walks of life;
- people who have discovered God's forgiveness and His amazing love;
- people who have made a personal commitment, not to a religion or a denomination, but to Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour;
- a group of Christians sharing a common life together, seeking to support each other in love, and concerned to meet spiritual and practical needs in Lancaster and beyond;
- a mainstream ‘evangelical’ Christian church;
- waiting to welcome you;
Purpose Statement: We are here to . . . 
- Bring glory to God the Father in our lives.
- Bring others into a living relationship with Jesus Christ.
- Become a Spirit led community.
LBC Mission Statement: By the work of God's Holy Spirit, we seek to achieve our purpose by . . .
- magnifying — worship of and devotion to God;
- ministry — identifying, nurturing and using our gifts and abilities willingly and sacrificially;
- mission — building bridges of friendship and service in our neighbourhood and making the good news of Jesus Christ known locally and world-wide;
- membership — deepening relationships through mutual love, care and commitment to each other;
- maturity — growing in our love and service of Christ together.
Over the years we have seen God touch and change people’s lives, bringing peace, hope, and even joy to those who’ve known real pain.
At LBC you will meet “real” people.
People, who’ve known the loss of bereavement, gone through the pain of divorce and experience the agony of unemployment. People whose dreams have been shattered and re-built. You’ll also meet people whom God has challenged to re-assess their lives and their lifestyle.
We don’t claim to have “arrived”. But we do claim to be on a journey: one enriched by God and his undeserved love. A journey with the sense of purpose that only Jesus brings.
