After worshipping together for almost a year Crowmoor and Claremont Baptist Churches have decided following recent church meetings to unite to form a new church with the working title of:

SHREWSBURY BAPTIST CHURCH.

The church will have premises in both the Crowmoor area and in the town centre. The new church will make mission and evangelism a top priority The votes were unanimous in one church and overwhelming in the other and the new church is very grateful for the help and advice of the HEBA and in particular Adrian Argile

Following meetings on 10th May 2009, both Claremont and Crowmmor Baptist Churches have completed the legal process to become united.
