About SBC
Our Story
In 1901, Stanmore Baptist Church (SBC) was established by 15 Christians who wanted to reach the growth suburbs of inner Sydney with the good news of Jesus.
SBC rapidly became a centre for evangelism and a base for building up the wider church. SBC had a vibrant ministry to children, supported numerous missionaries and positively impacted the community.
Over the course of time, there have been various ups and downs in the life of the church, but God has proven Himself to be steadfast and faithful throughout 110 years of our church history.
The Latest Chapter
The commitment by SBC's founders to reach Sydney for Jesus is still very much a part of who we are, and what we are passionate about today.
Whilst our city may have changed dramatically from its towering skyline, fast pace of life and ever growing multicultural population, some things never change. The greatest need for the people of our city is to be in a right relationship with God through Jesus.
At SBC, our desire is to personally and corporately know Christ, and to make Him known throughout Sydney.
This means that we work together as a team, design our ministry efforts to be relevant to the needs of those around us, and promote meaningful relationships with God, each other and the world.
We invite you to join us in transforming our city for the glory of God.
