We are a group of Christian believers, who have experienced
a powerful change in our lives by the power of the cross.
Please have a look at the testimonies
section of this website.
Our church, based in east London, was birthed when a missionary
couple came to London in the mid '80s from our mother church
in Perth (Australia), with a vision to see the lost come to
the knowledge of Christ. As a result of them obeying the call
of God [Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the
world, and preach the gospel to every creature], this revival
has broken out in our area, and we saw a steady growth in
attendance over the years.
Our desire and aim is to see men and women fulfil God's calling
for their lives in the various ministries that are available
for Christian believers according to God's word and personal
calling [Romans 12:5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ,
and every one members one of another]. This includes taking
the Gospel outside the four walls of our church, touching
neighbouring cities, and nations beyond.
We strongly believe in the pattern that was laid out to the
early believers, by Christ and through the fathers of the
church in the book of Acts. Our aim is to create an environment
for personal spiritual growth in the church.
The
various discipleship programs, bible study groups and outreach
ministries- all have the purpose of building up and strengthening
the body of Christ, presenting the church as an unblemished
bride, for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Walthamstow Church is a member of the 'Christian Fellowship
Churches', which was started in the early '70s by the Pastor
of a church (Wayman Mitchell) in the small town of Prescott,
Arizona. This man had a vision to touch other cities for Christ
[Mark 1:38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next
towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I
forth]. This vision has been caught like fire by those who
followed, and caused great growth for the church as many new
works were started as a result.
