‘The Lord has 
 helped us’

Founded in 1893 as the Foreign Missions Club, the Highbury Centre is a Christian guest house in North London which has given shelter to missionaries, pastors, full-time Christian workers and their families for over 100 years.

Now, in the second English lockdown, unable to open unless people are travelling on essential business, Sue Scalora of the Centre said: ‘The Lord has helped us through the ups and downs, and we’ll try and keep open even though we’re making a loss at the moment serving the Lord’s people.’

Returning missionaries often stay at the Centre, churches book away days, and individuals use it as a retreat for a day or longer.
