Who we are
Welcome!
We are Walsworth Road Baptist Church!
We are a friendly and all-age Baptist church family in Hitchin, Hertfordshire who gather in response to the love of God and the invitation of Jesus, and who live under the Lordship of Jesus and in the power of his Spirit; we are supportive of each other and welcoming of new faces; we are active and busy as a church, and are still discovering what it means to be church; we enjoy being with God and with each other in worship.
We have been reading the Bible together, and encouraging each other to hear God's voice as we do; we are strengthening our prayer life together; we have contact with more than 250 children and young people each week during term time, in a range of activities and opportunities, and our summer Holiday Clubs (and HC Extra) are well attended, mobilise a great team and leave us exhausted but fulfilled; our lunch club sees 40+ older friends enjoying good food and friendship, and a Holiday At Home every summer; we have been experimenting in outreach events within the town; we are recognised as 'the church that does the shoeboxes', but our mission includes much more than this significant project; we are exploring what it means to be Baptist, and Baptists together, but we worship and work well with other Christians in the town, valuing one another's varied insights and traditions, and co-operating in shared mission projects within schools and with events and Christian presence within the town centre.

Walsworth Road Baptist Church Service Times
We gather on Sundays at 10.30am and 6.30pm - everyone is INVITED to worship with us!
We have a number of “4-5-6” services throughout the year where we meet for worship at 4pm, join in tea at 5pm, and are home by 6pm. Our services are open and friendly and we want everyone attending to feel a key part of our worship of God, through our Saviour Jesus Christ.
Twice a month we have our Communion services, which are generally on the 1st Sunday in the month at our morning service, and the 3rd Sunday in the month at our evening service. We have an ‘open’ Communion table and everyone who loves our Lord Jesus Christ is welcome to join in and share bread and wine with us.
At least once per term we have a Parade Service at which the members of our Scout and Guide troops join with us at a family service.
We use a mixture of modern songs and traditional hymns and the New International Version (NIV) Bible for worship. Our services are amplified and we have a T-loop system for those who are hard of hearing; for those who can't attend or just want to catch up, we offer Listen:Again - our on-demand catch-up service.
It's been more than 5 years since the last service times update. Please make sure to contact the church to confirm service times.

Walsworth Road Baptist Church History
With us night and morning
By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered, and confidently waiting come what may, we know that God is with us night and morning, and never fails to greet us each new day. Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented, still evil days bring burdens hard to bear; Oh, give our frightened souls the sure salvation for which, O Lord, You taught us to prepare. And when this cup You give is filled to brimming with bitter suffering, hard to understand, we take it thankfully and without trembling, out of so good and so beloved a hand. Yet when again in this same world You give us the joy we had, the brightness of Your Sun, we shall remember all the days we lived through, and our whole life shall then be Yours alone.
