  • The Impact of Community Ministry on Church Health in the Anglican
    ABSTRACT THE IMPACT OF COMMUNITY MINISTRY ON CHURCH HEALTH IN THE ANGLICAN CHURCHES OF SOUTH LONDON by Stephen Hance The church in the United Kingdom has experienced a long period of decline and malaise in terms of cultural influence, numerical strength, and mobilization of its members. This period coincided with a time of retrenchment in the evangelical wing of the church particularly, in which mission came to be narrowly identified with proclamation evangelism at the expense of a broader and more holistic perspective. More recently a movement has emerged within the British church to live out a broader definition of the mission of God in the world, expressing mission in community ministry and service as well as other forms of evangelism. This research studied churches that are part of this movement in order to understand what the impact of this holistic mission practice is upon the health of a local church. First, it surveyed a cross-section of churches by means of a questionnaire. Second, it analyzed in more depth a smaller sample of churches that have embraced community ministry as part of a holistic approach to mission. It concluded that this approach has significant success in combating the symptoms of church malaise. DISSERTATION APPROVAL This is to certify that the dissertation entitled THE IMPACT OF COMMUNITY MINISTRY ON CHURCH HEALTH IN THE ANGLICAN CHURCHES OF SOUTH LONDON presented by Stephen Hance has been accepted towards fulfillment of the requirements for the DOCTOR OF MINISTRY degree at Asbury Theological Seminary May

Well, this past year has seen three things that have been important to Southwark Cathedral and in many ways are unforgettable. Back in 2012, the Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy wrote a poem about Southwark Cathedral which she entitled A Human Haunt. Five years later it continues to tell a good tale: St Mary Overie, St Saviour, Southwark, over the river, a human haunt in stone, thousand years here, the sweet Thames well recalls. Who came? Nuns, brothers, in good faith, saints, poets– John Gower, whose blind head, look, rests on the pillow of his books; Chaucer, imagining the pilgrims’ first steps on the endless written road we follow now, good readers; Shakespeare, with twenty cold shillings for a funeral bell- players, publicans, paupers, politicians, princes, all to this same, persistent, changing space, between fire and water, theatre and marketplace; us, lighting our candles in the calm cathedral, future ghosts, eating our picnic on a bench. What she captured in this poem was something of the spirit of the place, something of the rich history with its various famous characters and something of the modern and challenging situation in which we find ourselves.
