About Us

Our vision

At Fairfield Baptist Church, our mission is to

“In unity be a fully functioning Biblical community, demonstrating the love, grace and truth of Christ, through our worship, walk and witness.”

We will do this as we:

What we believe

That the Bible is the inspired Word of God and our only guide for what we believe and how we live.
That Jesus Christ is truly God and truly human.
That Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty of all our sin.
That a person is saved by God’s grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
That membership in the Christian Church is for those who are truly born again by God’s Spirit.
That the immersion of believers as the only scriptural form of water baptism.
That the church is made up of believers, and through the church we serve Jesus, one another and those who do not know Him. Jesus taught this by word and example.
That our mission as a church (relying on God’s Spirit), is to share the life changing message of Jesus with people and help them become lifelong followers of Jesus.
That everything we do as a church will be measured against this purpose.
That at Fairfield Baptist, visitors and people seeking to explore Christianity will find a warm and welcoming place.
