FIEC 100th celebration

The Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) has been marking its centenary (see also en January 2023).

FIEC staff past and present, current and former members of the FIEC Trust Board and Council, FIEC church leaders, and friends of the FIEC were all invited to a special service at Westminster Chapel.

It was in 1922 that Edward J Poole-Connor formed what he called an ‘association of mutual helpfulness’ for independent churches, now the FIEC. The thanksgiving service, originally scheduled for October last year, was rearranged due to rail strikes. Nearly 1,000 gathered in Blackpool last November for the centenary leaders’ conference (en, December).
