57 WEST BAPTIST CHURCH 

Our purpose is to nurture an emerging missional church among adults who are experiencing homelessness or are vulnerably housed in Southend. In partnership with God, each other and the wider family of God, we seek to express church through sharing the unchanging Gospel of Jesus in new ways, including our community cafe, Saturday church services and one to one support.
