Who we are

We are a vibrant and multi-cultural church family and we welcome people of all ages , nationalities and backgrounds.

We believe...

The Holy Bible is the Word of God. We are committed to following the teachings of Christ.

The Church was founded on 16th October 1837 on its present site by the evangelist and educationalist Henry Battiscombe, Fellow of King’s College, Cambridge, who had seceded from the Church of England.

It grew rapidly and was constituted as a church of “Evangelical Protestant Dissenters of the Particular Baptist Denomination holding the principles of Open Communion”.

The Sunday School increased to 500 members with Bible Classes held in various parts of Cambridge. By 1876 a larger Chapel was required, which was eventually opened in 1879. By the turn of the century the church had reached its zenith with 500 members and 680 in the Sunday School. With growth came struggles of size, communication as well as doctrinal debates.

Many of the younger people left Cambridge to serve in the First World War and never returned. Similarly congregations declined following the 1939-1945 War, when massive social change occurred in Britain. Zion Baptist Church responded to the new situation with Guest and Choral Services, dramas, visitation in the community and work amongst students. To date Zion Baptist Church still lives to fulfil this great calling even as we seek to serve the nations in Cambridge, through:

Magnifying GOD Making disciples of all nations Making the most of GOD given potential

Zion Baptist Church is committed to be practical in its love, not only preaching the Gospel of Christ, but practising it through extravagant acts of godly generosity, equity, mercy, love, and kindness.
