Welcome!
It is a real pleasure to welcome you to Cranham Baptist Church. We are a friendly group of people who are all at different points in our journey of discovering God’s extraordinary love.
We endeavour to live out our faith in Jesus as a family through loving and supporting one another. It is our vision to build relationships with others in our community and enable them to discover God’s love for themselves.
