Eastern Baptist Association

In Partnership with Spurgeons College, South Eastern Baptist Association and London Baptist Association, the EBA have been involved in developing a course for core leaders in Baptist Churches. Core leaders would normally be deacons, elders and others on your leadership teams.

The course covers six themes, designed to equip present and potential leaders in Baptist congregations.

Subjects will include:

the nature of leadership; spiritual life; working together; decision making; mission; pastoral care and Trusteeship.

Certificates will be awarded by Spurgeons/EBA for those who complete the course.

We will be running “Core Leaders Training” at Chase Cross Baptist Church. 83 Chase Cross Road, Collier Row, Essex. RM5 3PL over three Saturdays: 17th March, 14th April and 26th May, from 9.30 am to 3.00 pm.
