We are always delighted to meet new friends who come to worship with us. However if you can’t attend in person you can join our livestream on Thatcham Baptist Church – YouTube with a link shared on www.facebook.com/thatchambaptist/live
LIVESTREAMING: we endeavour to not film under 18’s unless previously agreed. However please be aware that if you sit on the front 2 rows, you may be caught on camera.
Link to Hope
Thank you for your support in this new shoebox venture for TBC. We had a good shoebox filling afternoon in November and through Link to Hope, the shoeboxes will go to impoverished families and elderly people in Ukraine, Moldova, Bulgaria and Romania.
Link to Hope are small, yet are established enough to have personal relationships with the individuals in Eastern Europe who work hard delivering the shoeboxes. For transparency, they also carry out spot-checks to confirm that the right people are receiving the boxes. They believe that sending shoeboxes shows love from British people to those in war-torn or poverty-stricken circumstances, regardless of their background, colour, creed or religion.
