After 30 years, we are still continuing
The Church of England Continuing, of which we are a small congregation, was formed in 1994.
We believe that the Bible is as vital and relevant today as ever and must not be explained away but rather applied to ourselves and to this needy world.
Our basis of faith is the 39 Articles of Religion which dates back to the 16th Century when God graciously brought England out of the Dark Ages.
The Church of England Continuing
Our denomination website is www.cofec.org where there are resources which will be very profitable to read, especially the early editions of "The Journal" which explain why the Church of England Continuing was formed.
You may also like to look at our "News and Views" website at cofec.org/news.
Our Minister
Our Minister, since 2003, is Rev Peter Ratcliff, who was also Editor of English Churchman newspaper from 2005 to 2021. There is an archive of these editions of the newspaper here.
We also offer some short answers to a variety of frequently asked questions.
Faithful and Keen Christians
For those who are not Christians or are not sure of their salvation we highly recommend attending church services where you will hear preaching.
Being among keen Christians, despite our many failings, will prove to be far more helpful than endless searching around online. If you are not living near Wimbledon, we may be able to recommend a church near you.
SAFEGUARDING - Our updated risk assessment and safeguarding policy is here.
We are a small church which has its advantages and disadvantages. We aren't a clique and we do genuinely love to have all sorts of people together. You can call the minister, Rev Peter Ratcliff, on 07946 465156 or email through the form link.
Meeting the community - usually we preach outdoors in the centre of Wimbledon on Friday evenings at 5:30 pm and monthly on Saturday mornings in Mitcham.
People are always searching for answers, yet the ultimate Answer to all questions is found in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Welcome to the English Churchman archive, a collection of editions edited by our Minister, Rev. Peter Ratcliff, during his tenure as Editor from 2005 to 2021.
