London is home to 100 billionaires, 66 Michelin-starred restaurants, and more 5-star hotels than anywhere else in the world. Yet behind the extreme wealth, gloss and glamour of our iconic city, many of our neighbours are isolated, overlooked and exploited. Too many struggle with the reality of poverty and making ends meet. Many have lost hope, with nowhere to turn. We believe every single person matters to God. We believe that, as the people of God, we are called to love our neighbours in word and deed, and to fight injustice. And so, rooted in the life of All Souls Church, we exist to see everyone in London flourish in body and soul.
Welcome to All Souls Serve the City.
We seek to serve those who are isolated, overlooked and exploited, bringing the message and ministry of Jesus.
Our work is based upon a gospel-centred holistic approach, sharing God’s love in both word and deed. This specific ethos seeks to inform every aspect of our work, from how we serve to how we communicate about our service with our volunteers and partners.
In 2025/26, we are undertaking a strategic process to identify and define Christian befriending across our ministries drawing on the experiences and input of those with lived experience whom we serve, our volunteers/serving partners, the staff, trustees and other thought leaders.
Together, all these will propel ASSTC towards its vision of transformative impact, in the parish and beyond.
