St. John’s is a proprietary chapel of the Church of England, within the Edmonton Area of the Diocese of London. We receive oversight from both the Bishop of Edmonton and the Bishop of Ebbsfleet, and work in close partnership with a number of local Anglican evangelical churches in the area. We also partner and help support a number of churches and organisations elsewhere.
Our current Mission Partners are:
- John Paul and Sue Aranzulla via Crosslinks: JP is pastor of Forte Torre Evangelical Church in Bologna, Italy.
- David and Ruth Lowry via Wycliffe Bible Translators: David translates scriptures into the Karon language in Dakar, Senegal.
- Stephen and Deborah Pacht: the Pachts work to further the gospel among Jewish people in Geneva, Switzerland, in partnership with WEC International. The heart of their work is to share the gospel with Jewish people individually or in small group bible studies.
- Paul and Jill Jump via St Clement’s Church, Manchester: our giving goes to support the church’s growing youth ministry in a deprived community.
- John and Jenny Miller via Crosslinks: John is a senior lecturer at Johannesburg Bible College (JBC), South Africa. JBC is an interdenominational college offering men and women practical training in understanding and teaching the Bible.
