Supported by a team from the Grace Baptist Partnership, a church in Hitchin decided to celebrate its anniversary by reaching out to the community, putting evangelistic preaching at the heart of their outreach.

Addressing questions relevant to people who aren’t yet Christians, the church saw outsiders coming in to what the church had phrased ‘a small church with a big message’.

The church was keen to follow the methods as well as the message of Paul in Acts, with less emphasis on a social event with a brief talk and more emphasis on substantial evangelistic messages. All talks are available at www.grace-baptist.org.uk
