Welcome to Antioch

They Came, they Saw, and they (were) Conquered

Each year our noble footballers dust off their boots and head to the Sword of the Spirit European Football tournament. Each year the ranks are swelled with Lebanese, Scots,Irish, Americans, Yorkshiremen, and even some Londoners, but the trophy eludes us.

This year was no exception, but a great time was had in Belfast, and the social and spiritual side of the contest was greatly appreciated.

Thanks to Elisa for this great photo, and we just look forward to next year when the unthinkable might happen!

24/7 prayer

Antioch joined with OakTree Fellowship and Acton Vale Missional Community for a week of round-the-clock prayer throughout the week leading up to Easter Sunday.

All who tried it, whether for an hour of prayer alone, or in a group of friends, were surprised by the blessing of being there, as part of a body of continuous prayer, for Acton, for its people, its problems, and grateful for the Lord who deals with it all. It was certainly "worthwhile"! and this writer will be back, next year, and encouraging more people to give it a go. The rewards were great.

12 weeks of training for our young people with "Kinetic"!

Phil Morrison - aided by Ruth Thompson - led a group of our young people through the 12 weeks to become better leaders. They have just finished, and are keen enough to tell you all about it!

Many thanks to Neil and Ros for letting them have the use of their downstairs room for the sessions.

Antioch is . . .

Antioch is an ecumenical, charismatic, covenant, Christian community based in West London. We have been united by the Lord with a common way of life and mission. We belong to the Sword of the Spirit, a world-wide 'community of communities'. For more information see the about us pages.

Our website

Welcome to our website. We aim to explain what Antioch is and what life in Antioch is about. You can keep up-to-date on our current events by visiting the calendar or to communicate with a real person, use our contact page.

Teachings

We now have recordings of teachings from our meetings if you have missed them, or just want to hear them again. However, talks from "Members'" meetings are in the Members' section.

Short articles by our members

This is a series of short pieces about our experience of the Christian life. The first was by Arthur Delargy, and then we got the experience of Karen Mascarenhas, who joined us from our sister community in Mumbai. Dominic Perrem told us about his walk of faith, and then we got Michael Rossi too. Read them and be inspired!

Student Outreach

We have an outreach to students at the London colleges called koinonia. Their pages are worth a read!

This all sounds interesting, what do I do to find out more?
