Get to know us
We are Bradfield and Rougham Church (BRBC). Our mission is to love Jesus together and help others to do the same, and we love to welcome new people into our church family. Read on for how we do this.
We are a Baptist church, we are reformed, and we base what we do on God’s word, the Bible. Along with a group of more than 650 other churches in the UK, we are affiliated to the Fellowship of Evangelical Churches (FIEC).
Hey there, I’m James, Lead Pastor at BRBC. I oversee the teaching, vision, staff team and pastoral care. I really enjoy getting to know people, helping them find their identity in Jesus, and seeing God work powerfully in their lives. Make sure to come and say Hi when you visit.
I’d love to introduce you to the rest of the team…

What you believe matters.
As a church, we joyfully submit to God’s Word and receive the faith passed down through historic, orthodox Christianity.
We have inherited a legacy.
For over 180 years, BRBC has been proclaiming Jesus Christ and serving in our beautiful corner of the world. The “concern for the souls” in Bradfield and Rougham is etched into our church DNA.
