Connecting

Connecting with our community At Concord Baptist we want to connect with those around us and to live out the love of God by loving others in ways that are practical and selfless. We believe that this is simply a part of what it means to follow Jesus. We are currently involved in a number of projects and activities in our local community, including – establishing and maintaining gardens at North Strathfield Primary School – providing food hampers to those in need inner city Sydney – visiting the elderly as well as bus-driving and providing music at a local nursing home and hostel The list above is not exhaustive and we’re always keen to find new ways to engage with and meet the needs of those around us. If you have any suggestions on how we can help please email us info@concordbaptist.org.au Connecting with the world Mission (cross-cultural, world & local) has always been important to Concord Baptist.
