A Day and Night Cry for Social Justice seeks to be an ongoing prayer of Sanctuary21.
Sanctuary 21 is a Salvation Army church which provides a place of Sanctuary for the 21st Century. Our work is based on prayer, mission and social justice. We are committed to fulfilling God's two great commands 'to love God and love people.' We seek to do this through prayer, practical Christian compassion and social justice by supporting those who are homeless and vulnerable in and around the City.

Sanctuary 21 continues to provide practical support to rough sleepers, homeless and other vulnerable people who present themselves with specific needs. This includes providing a free or discounted hot meal, clothing and shower facilities. A signposting system is in place that seeks to help people get effective help from local support agencies.
We also sell coffee, tea and light snacks including cakes and scones to members of the public. Funds raised from sales contributes towards our work. All are welcome.
We meet on Sundays to explore faith and discipleship.
Currently we are looking at how to Identify Spiritual Warfare and Learn How to Defeat the Enemy through a series called 'Your Story has a villain': There is an Enemy among us. You may know who he is, but you may not know what he is about. Do you know how he wages war? Do you know how he targets you specifically? He’s the villain who wants to change your story in the hopes you live isolated, powerless, discouraged, and defeated.
Are you ready to change your narrative and live a different story today? If you’re weary from the struggle and ready to experience life as God intended, this five-session series will help you explore the tactics of Satan, equip you to overcome spiritual battles, and remind you of the victory already secured through Jesus.
Why not join us on Sunday mornings it would be great to see you.
