OUR
VISION
WE INVITE YOU TO
SHARE OUR VISION.
Kensington Temple
is part of the Elim
Pentecostal movement
which was founded by
George Jeffreys 100
years ago in 1915. We are
an international church
welcoming people of
all races and nations.
We are growing a
network of churches, cell
groups, fellowships and
ministries serving Jesus
across Greater London
and reaching out to the
nations of the world.
We are confident that
the gospel of Christ is
the only hope for a world
suffering without Christ.
We are followers of
Christ who want to
grow as individuals
and in community to
become like him.
We raise disciples of
Christ who demonstrate
his love in their home,
community, workplace
or place of study.
We are a cell-based
church which prepares
you for ministry in
the market place.
We see every Christian
as a servant of God and
minister of Jesus Christ.
We understand that
believing and belonging
go hand in hand – we
believe in order to
belong and we belong
in order to believe.
