Overview

In the 1960s an extraordinary period of renewal came to the Church of the Redeemer in Houston, Texas. Worship was transformed and several hundred people shared homes and possessions in a community of love. Eventually the renewal came to Britain in the shape of the Community of Celebration, whose ministry teams known as the Fisherfolk became a worldwide phenomenon. Decades on, the Community of Celebration is now based in the USA, a small religious community of the Episcopal Church. How did it make the transition from a large family oriented community to a type of vowed religious order? Philip Bradshaw, an Anglican priest and life vowed community member based in England, reflects on his life with the Community since its early beginnings.
