Some of what we do
We believe in sharing our faith in practical ways. Here are some of the things we do to provide, for our church family and help in our community.
Food Larder
A member of our congregation felt ‘no one should go to bed hungry’ and from this idea, a group got together in 2020 to start to make this a reality. From October 2022, the Tilly Community Larder has been partnering with The Gate Charity, working together to reduce food poverty in Clackmannanshire. The Larder operates two sessions each week, on Monday and Friday afternoons. It is staffed by a team of volunteers from the church and community, and is generously supported by The Gate, other local businesses and community groups.
Help with debt
CAP Money is a simple, yet highly effective money management course that teaches people budgeting skills and a cash-based system that really works. This course will help anyone to get more in control of their finances, so they can save, give and prevent debt.
Tilly Baptist has partnered with Christians Against Poverty to offer CAP Money courses in our community. The service we offer is completely free.
Get in touch via the contact page to find out when the next course is running near to you.
Visit www.capmoney.org.uk to find out more about the course and to see where courses are running in other parts of the country.

Community Events
The church is involved in a wide range of events within the local community.
For a number of years we have run an annual Community Quiz and started Tillicoultry Community Week. Community Week is a week in August, usually the last week of the school holidays, when there are around 50 free events for the local community, run by a wide range of groups and people. We are also involved in Tilly Gala Day on Father’s day and many other community events during the year.
We also meet with the other churches in town at Easter, Christmas and other times, to celebrate together.

We believe that prayer changes things and we would love to pray together.

Christianity Explored
This is a chance to explore the Christian faith and who Jesus is by looking at his story in the book of Mark. We last ran this in the autumn and plan on running it again.
Mission
The church supports a number of individuals and organisations involved in local and international mission.
