The Blackwells in Britain

Ben and Heather are starting a new stage of ministry in 2023. After 12 years of training pastors and ministry leaders in Houston, God has called Ben to serve as the Vice Principal of Westminster Theological Centre based in Cheltenham, England.

While England has historically been a Christian country, only about 4% of the country attends church now.
— Ben Blackwell

Given this challenging setting, leaders of ministries there need to be deeply grounded in theology and deeply formed with a love for the church and the worldWith WTC’s innovative training model, Ben helps form leaders with a vibrant faith who are committed to biblical truth so they can serve the Kingdom in this secular space.

This missional role means that we need friends and family from home to stand with us in this journey. For many of you that will be keeping us in your prayers. For others, that means your financial support as well. WTC is covering most of our costs, but additional financial support is necessary for us to minister effectively at WTC, and through preaching and teaching in churches around the UK and Europe.

Ben and Heather would greatly value your prayer support. They would like to invite you to sign up for their prayer/update newsletter, which they will send out quarterly or so.

Any investment you give to the Blackwell Family will help to continue training up leaders in England and support the work they feel called to do.
