Prayer

Biblical faithfulness

Courageous Leadership

Evangelistic Mission

Church planting

The Renewal & Health of Local Churches

We exist to provide a clear, constructive evangelical voice, rooted in historic Christian orthodoxy and committed to the mission of God in the United Kingdom.

TO BE A TRUSTED COMMUNITY

​

In a rapidly changing culture and an increasingly complex ministry landscape, churches and leaders need:

 

Doctrinal clarity

Prayerful encouragement

Practical support

Leadership formation

Missional equipping

​​

The Immersed Network seeks to meet this need by providing:

​

Scripture-shaped partnership

Peer encouragement and accountability

Resources for evangelism and mission

Training for pastors, elders, and leaders

Support for planting, revitalisation, and renewal

​

Our desire is to see churches strengthened, disciples formed,

leaders supported, and Christ proclaimed.

​​

As a Network, we are committed to:

 

Historic, orthodox, conservative evangelical belief

The supreme authority of Scripture

Believer’s baptism by immersion

Congregational governance under Christ

The autonomy of the local church

Mission as the joyful responsibility of every disciple

​

While Baptist in conviction, we welcome churches from a range of denominational backgrounds who share these core commitments.

Vision

To see evangelical Baptist churches and leaders deeply rooted in Scripture, united in gospel partnership, and boldly engaged in God’s mission—so that local churches are strengthened, new churches are planted, and the good news of Jesus is clearly proclaimed in our communities and beyond.

We long for churches and ministers who are immersed in God’s Word, dependent on prayer, confident in the gospel, and courageous in mission, working together for the glory of God and the flourishing of the local church.

Mission Statement

Immersed Network exists to unite and resource evangelical Baptist churches—of any denomination and none—and their ministers for Scripture-shaped partnership in prayer, encouragement, leadership formation, and evangelistic mission, including church planting and the strengthening of local churches, providing a clear, constructive evangelical voice.
