Stepping out in faith: I said, ‘OK Jesus, I’m here…’

‘Never in a million years would you have seen me knocking on someone’s door. That’s someone else’s ministry, I would have told you.’

These were the words of Maria, a member of Forestdale Church in Croydon, South London.

It was such a joy when newly planted Forestdale Church approached London City Mission (LCM) to help them in their vision to share the gospel in their local community, writes Carl Knightly. LCM missionaries Simon and Patrick helped Pastor Joseph Bedlako and members of the church to understand the local area and to plan how they could make connections with the local community and start conversations about Jesus.
