Eythorne Baptist Church : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eythorne Baptist Church
Eythorne Baptist Church originated in the meetings of early 16th century Baptists who had crossed the English Channel from the low countries to Kent to escape persecution. Nineteenth century Baptist writer J. J. Goadby named Eythorne as one of the three "most ancient Baptist churches in England".〔Goadby〕 For many years the Church had associated village chapels in east Kent. Two of these remain—at Adisham and Nonington. Others were at Eastry, Ashley, Woolage Green, Wootton and Barnsole. ==Beginnings== The immigrant Baptists and their English supporters held meetings at Eythorne and also at Canterbury, about away. Joan Boucher, or Bocher, who is sometimes described as ''Joan of Kent'' and known to have been involved in "reforming circles" in Canterbury 〔 ''DNB''〕 is said by "uninterrupted and uncontradicted tradition" 〔Newton Brown 〕 to have been an early member of the church at Eythorne. She was burnt at the stake at Smithfield on 2 May 1550 after refusing to recant her views on the incarnation of Christ. The church's website tells us that she spoke of "our little meeting in quiet Eythorne" at the preceding trial. Soon afterwards, the Duke of Northumberland, one of the king's advisers, expressed concern about the "Anabaptists lately sprung up in Kent".〔
