In September 2026, on 26th & 27th, the 1st Bletchley Boys’ Brigade and Girls’ Association, with which we are partnered, will celebrate its centenary!

Spurgeon Baptist Church, and the Water Eaton Church Centre within which we meet, form an important part of the history and current work of the 1st Bletchley Company, with many BBGA leaders & members past and present also members of our own congregation. The minister of Spurgeon’s acts as the chaplain of the Company.

On Saturday, we will be holding our Past Members Event & Exhibition, to which anyone is invited.

Feel free to drop in any time between 10.30am and 4.30pm to visit our exhibition. The exhibition will include many items of memorabilia from the past 100 years (e.g. the Bible which was given to Ron Staniford when he was a teenager). As a special part of our history, we will also be showcasing and commemorating the work of the Girls’ Brigade, which faithfully witnessed to so many girls over the years.

You can check out all the details on the flyer below (also available to download as a pdf).
