You may have noticed this church is a true gem, a small but vibrant jewel nestled amidst the city’s bustling streets. This is The Apostolic Catholic Assyrian Church of the East. Its roots are deep, reaching back to one of the oldest Christian traditions in the world. Imagine, in the days of the Roman Empire, this ancient church thrived in the heart of Persia. It witnessed the rise and fall of empires, the ebb and flow of cultures, and the spread of Christianity over vast lands. These very walls echo with stories of persecution and resilience. Its members, largely from the Iraqi community, have borne the weight of suffering, their faith a beacon in times of darkness. Many of them sought sanctuary in this church following the upheaval in Iraq, bringing with them a vibrant cultural heritage that enriched the fabric of London. Today, The Apostolic Catholic Assyrian Church of the East is a home for a diverse community, a place of worship for believers and a symbol of hope in the heart of the city. The church has become a vital center for the Assyrian diaspora, a reminder of their rich history and a beacon for the future.
