We invite you to come worship with us! Our worship service begins at 10:00 a.m. Child care for children ages two and under is provided in the nursery. Sunday School classes are available for children age 2 through 8th grade.
Our Beginnings Shalom Community Church began in the spring of 1984 as an outreach to the London Community. Services were held at the 42 Little College Day Care until 1988 when we began meeting at our current facilities. In 2004 our name was changed from Shalom Community Church to London Christian Fellowship, to better reflect who we are.Currently we average around 95 people in attendance each Sunday. |

With the Bible as our guide, we seek to develop authentic and passionate followers of Christ through:
· WORSHIP – Glorifying God with our lives Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness. Psalm 29:2
· FELLOWSHIP – Sharing life together So in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. Romans 12:5
· DISCIPLESHIP – Studying and applying God’s Word to our lives Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. Ephesians 4:15-16
· SERVICE – Meeting the needs of others Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. I Peter 4:10
· EVANGELISM –Sharing Christ with others I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ. Philemon 1:6 |

We want everything we do to be based on the words of Jesus:
…'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' Matthew 22:37-39 |
|
May all that we think, say and do, flow out of our Passion for God…Compassion for people! |
