The Baptist tradition holds a distinctive place within British church life. Baptist churches practise believer's baptism by immersion and value the independence of each local congregation. The tradition has deep roots in Britain: the first Baptist congregation on English soil gathered in London in 1612. The Baptist Union of Great Britain links around 1,900 churches with roughly 100,000 members, alongside separate unions in Scotland and Wales. The tradition traces its modern form to Early 17th century. As a measure of its reach, the wider family today counts roughly 100,000 members in Baptist Union churches.
It is one of many congregations found across Wales, shaped by revivals and a chapel-building tradition unmatched anywhere else in Britain. Blaenavon lies within Torfaen, whose county town is Pontypool. If you are new to the area, this is one of several congregations in Blaenavon worth getting to know.
