Street Pastors is an inter-denominational Church response to urban problems, engaging with people on the streets to care, listen and dialogue.
It was pioneered in London in January 2003 by Rev Les Isaac, Director of the Ascension Trust, and has seen some remarkable results, including drops in crime in areas where teams have been working. There are now some 9000 trained volunteers in over 250 teams around the United Kingdom.
Each city project is set up by Ascension Trust and run by a local coordinator with support from Ascension Trust and local churches and community groups, in partnership with Police, Council and other statutory agencies. |
Christ uncrowned himself to crown us, and put off
his robes to put on our rags, and came down from heaven to keep us out of hell.
He fasted forty days that he might feast us to all eternity; he came from heaven
to earth that he might send us from earth to heaven. |
