Person
God spoke to David and Philippa Stroud about ministering in central London 20 years ago, so the start of ChristChurch was the fulfilment of a God given dream. David and Philippa have been involved in leading churches for over 15 years, and ChristChurch is the third church that they have planted. David also leads the UK Newfrontiers team. Philippa works as an adviser on issues of social justice in Westminster.
