About Mayfield Baptist chapel

 A group of Christians has been meeting here in Mayfield since possibly as early as 1801; today, we seek to glorify God and make Him known to others in our lives. We are an evangelical Church which believes in the importance of following the Bible - God's word to us - as our only rule and practice.

We believe that Jesus - God's son - died on the cross at Calvary to pay the punishment for our sin, he took the punishment that we deserved, having Himself lived a perfect life, and then rose again on the third day, conquering death and sin. 

All people are in need of salvation; salvation is God's free gift in Christ Jesus and cannot be earnt by good works, but is found only by trusting in Christ's death on the cross for the forgiveness of sin. Inward conversion will be evidenced by the out working reformation, that is, a life consistent with God’s word.

Our beliefs are summarised in more detail in The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith.
