Around two years ago, a young and newly ordained minister and his wife had a vision to plant a church in the heart of Central London which would last for 100 years.
But rather than taking a group of around 40 people, as is the usual church planting route, they did something crazy. With the blessing of their sending churches and a number of Christian organisations, Malcolm (formally at St Ebbe’s Church in Oxford) and his wife decided to move to London with no money, no people and no place to plant a new church. Two and a bit years later we praise God that there is a new church in Central London meeting in Leicester Square.
Stones throw from Soho
God raised up from scratch a great team of people who have worked alongside Malcolm and his wife in the white harvest fields of London to plant a new, diverse congregation in one of the darkest places in the UK, with Soho and the sex district just a stone’s throw away.
