Stories of events in Baptist Churches in Victoria.

+ Let us know how you’d like to see our Box Hill Baptist Care Groups changed and improved for 2025! No fancy surveys, no big discussion forums – just send us an email and let us know how you think we could improve these groups! Your feedback and perspectives will really help us make sure you (and others!) are meaningfully cared for and supported in the year to come. Send us an email at office@boxhillbaptist.org.au with your thoughts!

+ Grateful thanks to those who have stepped up to take on many tasks while Eddie is on holiday. There will undoubtedly be gaps and if you see something that needs to be done, please do it yourself or ask someone else to do it.
