Ripples of Change
Friday 17th October 2025, 2pm
Bloomsbury Baptist Church, London
All are welcome, there is no need to register to attend, the service will combine thankfulness for the progress made to ‘create an equal space for women in all leadership roles’ as well as a time of lament for many of the findings of Project Violet. The title reflects the ongoing ‘ripple effect’ of this work as we hope to see justice rolling like a river for all women in Baptists Together. |

Sight Loss Sunday
Sunday 12th October 2025
Sight Loss Sunday is an initiative by Torch Trust, an organisation dedicated to enabling blind and partially sighted people to encounter Jesus, grow in their faith and thrive in Christian community. Sight Loss Sunday is a great opportunity to celebrate those who are blind and partially sighted in our congregations and communities; and to equip the church to achieve it’s aim of welcoming all of God’s people.
This year, Sight Loss Sunday will be taking place on Sunday 12th October 2025. The theme is ‘Who does God call?’ They will be looking at vocation through the lens of Samuel and Eli and through the words Paul writes to the church in Corinth. It will be an opportunity to celebrate God’s gifts and calling on those with sight loss as part of God’s wider calling on His Church and His people; and to think about what God may be calling each of us to do.
There is a suite of resources available on their website, including a fully planned all-age service, a recorded sermon, a video celebrating the leadership gifts and experience of those with sight loss and lots more.

Preaching Women of the Bible Online Workshop
Monday 17th November 8.30pm-9pm
Online
The gospels feature a number of women and without their stories, the story of Jesus would be incomplete. So why don't we hear about them very often in sermons? This workshop will look at some of these women's stories, how we can preach about them, and why it matters that we do so.
This workshop will be led by the Revd Liz Shercliff, tutor at Luther King Centre, Manchester.
Ticket prices: general, £12; ministry student, £10. Booking closes 13 November 2025.
Booking is still open for our other autumn workshops – Preaching the Psalms (20th September), Preaching Matthew’s Gospel (3rd November), and Preaching the Christmas story (15th November).
Further details, including booking links for all workshops can be found here |
