Eastern Baptist Association

The Eastern Baptist Association (EBA) has as its members the 176 Baptist Union churches in the counties of Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk. This covers some 8,000 square miles and ranges from the heavily populated areas of South Essex to the wide open spaces of the North Norfolk coast. The churches vary in their size and style, but all are committed to their communities and the gospel of Christ.

The Association is served by three Regional Ministers and three part-time administrative staff:

  • North Sector and Team Leader: Revd Beth Powney
  • Central Sector: Revd Graeme Ross
  • South Sector: Revd Nick Lear
  • EBA Secretary: Mrs Hayley Beckett

The EBA vision is “to see the kingdom of God come in the East of England though healthy churches, living as wholesome communities, and engaging in effective mission”.
