Connect Groups meet every second week at various locations and different times around the city.
They are a great way for forming deeper relationships with people, and encouraging each other in our walk with God.
We aim to care for one another and the people in our lives well, praying that we grow in faith in Jesus, and love for each other as we do so. Whether new to St Albans Baptist, or been coming for many years, we would love to have you join one of these groups.
Here at SABC we believe strongly in the value of Men’s Ministry. A space for men to gather, eat, bond and be encouraged and challenged by a variety of speakers covering a wide variety of topics relevant to men. A place where men can learn together how to live strong for God and accomplish all He has called us to. With events every 2-3 months, the Men’s Ministry is led by Mike Collins.
