Public benefits

The direct benefits which flow from our purpose include attendance at meetings convened for the teaching of Scripture, for fellowship, for the breaking of bread, as well as involvement in prayer meetings and evangelism. This is evidenced in personal growth in faith of those who attend the church, comfort to the bereaved and to the sick and elderly

members of the church who receive encouragement through visitation and prayer. The provision of religious education for children and young people. Financial support for the departments of the Association of Baptist Churches in Ireland and for missionaries sent out from our church locally and to other parts of the world through like-minded organisations. These benefits are demonstrated through feedback from regular attendees at the various church services, interest in missions shown by prayer and financial support given, and the ongoing regular attendance of members at worship services. The Trustees are satisfied that carrying out the purpose of our charity will not cause harm to any individual attending the church, or to any other members of the wider community.
