We are a Christian Church

We believe in one God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) who has revealed himself supremely through his Son, the Lord Jesus. To know God the Father, we must put our trust in his Son and his death for our sins. The chief work of God the Holy Spirit is to draw people to faith in Christ and enable them in living for Christ.

We are an Evangelical Church

We believe that the Bible is God’s word written and is therefore our authority in all matters of faith and conduct. It speaks ultimately into every area of human life. In all our activities we seek to listen to and obey God’s word in Scripture. We also aim to proclaim the Bible’s wonderful message of salvation through Christ to as many people as possible.

We are an Anglican Church

We stand in the tradition of the Anglican Reformers of the 16th century, affirming with them the great truths which were reaffirmed at the time of the Reformation, such as the sovereignty of God in salvation, justification by faith alone, and salvation in Christ alone.

We are a Welcoming Church

We understand and respect the questions, doubts and struggles people have about Christianity. We believe honest questions deserve honest answers. 

We even understand that people struggle with “church”. We appreciate that contemporary life in London (and elsewhere here in the UK) throws up enormous challenges and hurts. We know people are hungry for relationships, friendships and community that make a difference. We are not perfect people but we are welcoming people.

We are a local Church

We meet on Sunday evenings at at 6.30 at St John the Divine Church, on Garratt Lane. During the mid-week we meet in homes around the area.
