Pastor

Stephen Lloyd has been our pastor since 2008. He is married to Hannah and has four children. Before becoming a pastor he worked in scientific research and also as a postman. In addition to his work for the church, Stephen works part-time as a researcher and lecturer for Biblical Creation Trust.

Connections

We are an independent church, and we believe it is important to work together with other like-minded churches. We are part of the Association of Grace Baptist Churches (SE), the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC), and the Kent Gospel Partnership.

As part of our commitment to serve other churches in Gravesend and beyond, we organised the Equipped317 Bible conference from 2015–2017. These were one-day conferences designed to equip Christians, from the Bible, to serve God in an increasingly secular culture. Recordings of all the talks are available on the Equipped317 website.
