About This Archive
This English Churchman archive is freely accessible to everyone and serves as a valuable resource for readers and researchers alike.
The collection includes back issues of the English Churchman newspaper, covering a wide range of topics, from theological debates and historical events to contemporary issues within the Church.
Whether you are conducting historical research or simply seeking insightful Christian reading, this archive offers a wealth of material. The search function allows you to explore the collection with ease.
Please note that the archive is still incomplete. The English Churchman was first published in 1843, and many early volumes are only available in major national libraries. We are actively working to expand the collection.
We welcome contributions of older copies of the newspaper, either as physical editions or scanned files. If you have copies you would like to share, or are able to assist with scanning, please get in touch with us—we would love to include them here.
For contributions, inquiries, or suggestions, please email the Editor. Your support in preserving and growing this archive is greatly appreciated!
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.
