About Us
read moreThere was a Baptist Church in Coventry believing the same Bible truths as we do now as early as 1652. Hillfields Church Coventry (initially "Rehoboth" and then Lower Ford Street Baptist Church) has been on its present site since 1857. The initial members included a baker, watchmaker, ribbon manufacturer, weavers, cordwainer, and a gardener. The desire to build a chapel then was frustrated because of difficulty in buying land on which to erect a nonconformist chapel. Eventually the present site in Lower Ford Street was obtained without opposition, and this led to the name "Rehoboth" - meaning "room" - reflecting the belief that the Lord had made room for them in Coventry.

Everyone needs help raising kids and at Stay and Play, those who come along can support and learn from each other as friends. At Mountain Life we teach kids to thrive in the outdoors. We give them a chance to learn and practice a huge range of skills together and go on regular outdoor trips. We also teach them about Jesus and adventurous Christians from the past and present.

Our services can be described as traditional but the atmosphere of them is warm and accommodating towards all people, whilst joyfully and respectfully focused on God's character and presence. We worship our God through singing, prayer and listening to God speak through his word, the Bible. We know that as a Church we are not just a collection of individuals, God has brought us together and we enjoy each other's company.
