Church Building
A very exciting development during recent years has been to see a direct fellowship link established with the Aksakovo Baptist Church in Bulgaria. On several occasions groups of people from DBC have visited the church there, preaching at services and sharing encouragement with them. Over the years, much needed aid in the form of warm clothing, toiletries etc. have been taken out to Aksakovo as well as to other churches, orphanages and gypsy families living in out-lying areas.

Currently, DBC is providing ongoing help to the Aksakovo church by making a significant contribution towards the financial support of their young Pastor Ventzi Mitev and his family.

Ventzi repeatedly writes, expressing gratitude for the practical love and fellowship they receive and it is exciting for us to see how the church is increasing under Ventzi’s dedicated ministry.

With YWAM in Brazil

The Ward family left their home here in Dereham in 2008 to work with ‘Youth With A Mission’, in Brazil, since when they have adopted the affectionate title of “Brazilnuts”. Nuts or not, David and Beckie are now working in a “favela” in Belo Horizonte, where they are seeking to make known the love and compassion of Jesus. As their home church family we are committed to their support, both by prayer and giving.

Supporting BMS

The Baptist Missionary Society (BMS) is regularly supported in our giving at DBC, as also is the Baptist Home Mission Fund. Many people here also contribute directly to world mission through the BMS by taking part in the well established ‘birthday scheme’ that Jean Bennett is responsible for. This is a simple procedure to adopt. First, sign up with Jean by giving her your name and date of birth.

You will then receive a BMS birthday card each year which is returned to Jean with a thanksgiving gift to be forwarded to the mission. Information concerning the work of BMS is brought to the attention of the church as it becomes available and a brief report is shared, once a month, at the Sunday evening service.
