HOW ARE WE FUNDED?

Baptist churches are nothing more and nothing less than a group of like - minded Christians who get together to follow and represent Jesus’ kingdom in a particular locality. So, we receive no government funding nor subsidy from a state or national office. Financially, we entirely run off donations freely given.
Our current budget requires over $8000 per week, most of which we spend on our local mission here in Unley Park (including paying our Pastors). But we also support other Christian mission across SA and around the world.
There is so much good we can do together in Jesus’ name!

SPECIAL OFFERINGS
We receive a range of special offerings to bring God’s blessing and renewal to his world. You can give in regular services or online.

  • Street Party Offering — at the Christmas Street Party an offering to support Baptist Care’s SA work with the homeless
