Tilehouse Street Baptist Church, Hitchin Tilehouse Street Baptist Church, Hitchin
Following a review of the church's youth work
in 2005, Tilehouse Street Baptist Church made the decision to employ a
part-time Family Worker early on in 2006, and started the recruitment process
in earnest after the summer. Much hard work and prayer from the whole church
went into this project and, by December, we had appointed Sharon Beck, who
began her job officially on 1st February 2007.
Sharon was welcomed and commissioned by the church in our Sunday morning service on 11th February 2007, and she is looking at how we can develop our ministry to families, building relationships with families with whom we already have contact, and finding out how we, as a church, can better support families within our local community. It may come as a surprise to you to know that we have contact with at least 100 families who are on church premises every week - for Pre-School, mid-week clubs, toddler group, dancing classes. etc.
Sharon comes with experience in working with younger children and she has two young children of her own. Sharon, who made a Christian commitment as a teenager, lives locally and has now joined the fellowship at Tilehouse Street as a member. She is based at the church building during work time and can be contacted via the church office (01462 456765).
