Our Deacons

Trinity Baptist Church currently has six Deacons looking after various interests within the church. Geoff Beckingham (church secretary), Felix Kabutey (treasurer), Kwaku Adjekum, David Oluleye and Pius Metuge Ajang.

The Worship group

​We have a well-established worship group with a commitment to the development of music and worship during our church service.

The worship group meet every Thursday for fellowship and practise. The group is made up of members of the congregation who are called to lead the church in sung worship.

​Trinity Baptist Church has a Sunday morning youth and children's work called "Energise". This is a loving and safe environment developed to allow our young ones to learn the love of Jesus through the Bible and Christian activities. Energise is made up of Livewires (2-5yrs), Activ8 (6-11yrs ) and Connect (11-16yrs). Please contact Val Clarke if you'd like more information about Energise at Trinity Baptist Church.
