Well-known evangelical David Fletcher dies

David Fletcher, a well-known figure for many decades in conservative evangelical circles, has died.

His ministry was appreciated for many years – but more recently he attracted controversy and anger because of his role in the John Smyth abuse scandal (en, passim).

A statement on the website of St Ebbe’s CofE Church, Oxford, where he ministered for many years, said simply: ‘We are sad to announce that David Fletcher died peacefully at home early on Monday morning (31st January, 2022).’
