Founded in 1869
and bombed in 1941, it was rebuilt in the fifties on its present
site and refurbished in 1996.
Our church
building is set in the middle of a crowded London suburb,
set about with shops, takeaways, pubs, clubs and nail parlours.
It stands on a busy street where our Lord can be encountered
in any number of guises at any time of day or night.

We are a one-church
circuit, with a mainly black congregation finding roots in
the Caribbean and in West Africa.
In the 60's
Keith Johnson and David Haslam set the pattern for strong
visible action and protest…a tradition which has been carried
on by the congregation and its ministers ever since…. and
our banner has been carried through the streets of London
as a witness to our love and concern for the poor,the powerless
and the troubled in our country and across the world. Issues
of Apartheid, war, guns and drugs have seen us on the march!
