The island city of Portsmouth is the most densely populated city in Britain and home to a thriving and fast-growing university. But gospel witness on the island is thin. That is all changing, though.
For some years, member churches of the Solent Gospel Partnership have wished to see some new impetus for ministry in Portsmouth.
Steve Bell is a member of the Solent Gospel Partnership steering committee and comments: ‘As a group of Bible-driven and gospel-centred churches in the Solent region, we long to see new churches planted and existing churches strengthened. The need for this is nowhere greater than in the heart of the city of Portsmouth.’
