The town centre church
North Shields is a vibrant, growing town on the North East coast of England, home to Geordies,
renowned for their friendliness. Founded on fishing and shipping, it traces its origins back to the
13th century but now, although it’s still a major force in the fishing industry and cruise ships ply to
and fro from its banks, most of the heavy industry has been replaced by modern, high tech
service and manufacturing industries.
The town has its origins in more than fishing and shipping though. It was set up by the Priory in
Tynemouth and it has never quite forgotten its spiritual heritage. Our church stands near the
centre of this large town, testament to the continuing love of God, ready to serve our community
in the name of Jesus.
North Shields Baptist Church is here
to accept people as they are,
enabling them to move and grow,
through God’s word and
through the action of God’s Spirit,
as we worship Him.
