Worship at FBC

What are our services like?

Every Sunday morning at 10.30 am we gather for about an hour and a half to sing Christian songs (both modern and traditional), pray, read Scripture and listen to a talk. Most Sundays we run 'children's church' from crèche age up to school year 9 with the children usually joining the start of the service and then going off to their own groups. Occasionally some Sunday, we'll have an all-age service where adults and children stay together to worship, learn and usually laugh a lot!

Our morning service is videoed and live streamed on YouTube, and as such can be viewed by anyone who has access to the internet. Unless you sit at the back of the room, it is possible that you may be briefly caught on camera, and it is assumed that by attending you are giving your permission to be included in this way. It is the responsibility of adults of children under the age of 18 to ensure that their children do not appear on the cameras in this way if they do not wish them to.

You can join the livestream of our service on our YouTube channel, and catch up on previous services, by clicking the FBC LIVE button below.

What about refreshments?

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits after our Sunday morning service.

Do we ask for money?

Everything we provide on a Sunday is free, but people can make a financial gift during the morning service (using the bags provided) that goes to our Community Care Fund. This is used to help support local, national and international needs. This is a freewill offering, so you are not under any compulsion to give towards it.

Do we have any other services on the Sunday?

We run a short communion service at 9.00 am on the first and third Sundays of the month. Before the pandemic we used to hold a weekly 'cafe church' type service at 6pm but this has more recently been replaced with occasional prayer and reflection or praise meetings. Our weekly notice sheet provides details of all our forthcoming services.

Planning your Visit

New to Church?

Welcome! Whether you've just moved to the area, or have lived here all your life, we hope our website helps you to find out everything you want to know about Frimley Baptist Church.

The Church is involved in many activities, for all ages, some on a Sunday and many in the week. All these activities are explained in more detail under the "What's On" pages.

If you are wondering what would happen if you visited us on a Sunday, here's some information that we hope you will find helpful.

Where and when does the church meet?

We meet at: Frimley Baptist Church, Balmoral Drive, Frimley GU16 9AR.
On Sundays we meet at 10:30 am in the building as well as live streaming the service over YouTube. The live stream and all previous services can be viewed by clicking the "FBC Live" icon.

On the first and third Sunday of the month we also hold a half an hour, early morning communion service from 9.00 am - 9.30 am.

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go or provide you with more information to take away.

At our main service there will be some singing (which you can join in with or not!), prayer, a Bible reading, and a talk based on a Bible passage or theme from the Bible. The words of the songs, Bible reading and visual aids during the talk are all projected onto the wall for easy viewing. A weekly produced notice sheet is also available giving details of the various events taking place during the week and news.

What happens for the children at church?

During our Sunday Morning Services (except in August), we run 'children's church' alongside the morning service to which all young people (ages 0-14) are welcome. Children stay with their parents for the start of the service and then someone will announce when the children go to their groups. You will need to go with your children to register them if it is your first time with us.

Occasionally some Sundays, we'll have an "All age service" where adults and children stay together to worship, learn and usually laugh a lot! A separate room with toys and crafts for the littluns will be available if the parents/guardians wish to do so. We just ask the parent/guardian to stay with their children throughout the "All age service".

Our Sunday morning service is LIVE streamed over YouTube and parents/guardians of children under 18 are responsible for ensuring their children are not on camera, if they do not wish them to be.

For more information about what happens in the children's work please visit the relevant age groups for you under What's On.

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes. When worshipping with us, the decision to wear a face mask or socially distance is the personal choice of the individual.

Will I have to join in?

Not at all! You are free simply to observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.

New to Frimley?
