About Us
Get to know us a bit better
Tilly Baptist Church
Tillicoultry Baptist Church is a church of about 120 members and all ages are involved. All of the church members have found faith through Jesus Christ which makes a positive difference in their lives. The church is a good place to find out more about the Christian faith and how it connects with daily life.
Our main aims are to…
Love God
We love because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19
Love Others
He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ Luke 10:27
and Make Disciples
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20
Leadership
The church has a group of Elders who are given overall responsibility for leading the church.
We also have a group of very capable Ministry Leaders who take care of the many aspects of church life.
Baptism
Here is a short video all about Baptism from Pastor Dee about why we love celebrating with people who decide to take this tremendous step in their faith journey.
DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLE OF THE BAPTIST UNION OF SCOTLAND
The basis of the Union is:
- That the Lord Jesus Christ our God and Saviour is the sole and absolute Authority in all matters pertaining to faith and practice, as revealed in the Holy Scriptures, and that each Church has liberty, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to interpret and administer His laws.
- That Christian Baptism is the immersion in water into the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, of those who have professed repentance towards God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, who died for our sins according to the Scriptures; was buried and rose again the third day.
- That it is the duty of every disciple to bear witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and to take part in the evangelisation of the world.
The church is a registered charity in Scotland (Charity No: – SC052310), and is also registered with Volunteer Scotland.
We are a member of the Baptist Union of Scotland (www.scottishbaptist.org.uk) – a voluntary association of Baptist churches in Scotland.
All our children’s work leaders and those volunteering with vulnerable adults are PVG checked.
