Napier Baptist Church Service Times
We meet every Sunday at 10am to encourage one another in our relationship with Jesus and share together in learning about God and encountering him in worship.
After the service, we love to share a cup of tea or coffee, usually out on the deck if the weather is nice, or in the hall, to continue getting to know each other better.
During term time there is a separate programme for children during the service
It's been more than 7 years since the last service times update. Please make sure to contact the church to confirm service times.

Napier Baptist Church History
Lord, teach me to listen.
The times are noisy and my ears are weary with the thousand raucous sounds which continuously assault them. Give me the spirit of the boy Samuel when he said to Thee, "Speak, for Thy servant heareth." Let me hear Thee speaking in my heart. Let me get used to the sound of Thy voice, that its tones may be familiar when the sounds of earth die away and the only sound will be the music of Thy speaking. Amen.
