Do you have a passion for God's mission in London? Do you have a heart for those least likely to hear the gospel - and a gift for connecting with them? Could you come alongside local churches to engage, envision and equip them to reach more Londoners with the life-changing news of Jesus? At London City Mission, we estimate that one in two Londoners, that’s roughly 4.5 million people, are unlikely to hear the gospel in their lifetime. For many of these people, their everyday experience will be one of rejection or helplessness and their cultural and religious background may mean they are least likely to hear the gospel. It’s clear throughout the Bible that God has a heart for people who are marginalised and overlooked. And tragically, it’s often in London’s most deprived communities that people are least likely to hear the invitation to repentance and eternal hope in Jesus. At London City Mission, we are partnering with churches who have a growing passion for reaching out...
