Ascension is a fast-growing Anglican church community based near Clapham South tube station in South West London. Our mission is to reach the 95% of people in Balham and beyond who do not yet go to church with the love of God!

In 2013 Marcus Gibbs joined the church as vicar and has overseen the transformation of the church from a predominantly Sunday focused church to a 7 day a week community hub, with a gourmet coffee shop and community groups including ministry to new parents, refugees, 6th form students, debt centre clients and more. Around 1,000 people come through our doors a week and around 200 attend Sunday services.
