In seeking to establish an auxiliary in the South West region, a group of men gathered in Exeter in 2018 to seek the Lord’s will in the matter. After prayerful discussion the General Committee of the Society gave formal approval that the South West Auxiliary be formed with effect from July 2019. Four men from within the Auxiliary region were appointed to serve as members of this committee and to oversee the growth of this important work, by seeking to further local interest in the work of the Society as a whole, as well as to fulfil the Society’s primary purpose in seeking opportunities to circulate copies of the Word of God in the Auxiliary’s designated region. It is the desire of the Auxiliary that the Word of God might go forth amongst them as the Lord opens doors of opportunity.

The inaugural meeting for the Auxiliary was held on Saturday 25 January 2020 at Beacon Park Baptist Church with the Rev. J. Thackway preaching.
