Are you moving to Carlisle in 2010? – Our new Pastor, Peter Walkingshaw writes…

“As Lucy and the family and I are packing up to move at the moment, moving to Carlisle is very much on our minds. You may also be moving to Carlisle, or close by, this summer or know someone who is.

If you are looking for a new church why not come along and meet with us at Carlisle Baptist Church. Of course church is not something you go to, it’s a community to be part of centred around Jesus Christ and His mission. What a great opportunity to start together as part of this community.”

Peter starts his ministry at Carlisle Baptist Church from the start of September 2010. The church family meet together at 10am on a Sunday morning. If you would like directions to the church building you will find them here http://carlislebaptistchurch.org.uk/category/find-us/
