    CANNON STREET MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHURCH 

    We are a warm, caring and friendly fellowship. Worship styles are a mixture of traditional and modern. We are a black majority inner-city Church, a lively charismatic-evangelical fellowship. We minister in a multi-racial, multi-faith community, which has a luncheon club that serves the community. People enjoy our lively worship, bible based preaching and our friendly welcome.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
