An abundance of links and resources can be found on
the main site of the Jesus
Radicals network, and so this page will contain only those links which
would prove especially useful to those holding dual citizenship with the Kingdom of God
and the UK.

London Catholic
Worker
The Catholic Worker movement is characterized by
communities which gather together in reflective prayer, show solidarity to
the poor, oppose warfare in favour of nonviolent
resistance, and commit to “building a new society within the shell of
the old.” In addition to strengthening their community of faith, LCW
also engage in direct action as a witness against the corruption of the
state.
Christian Peacemaker Teams
UK
What would happen if Christians across the world
devoted the same discipline and self-sacrifice toward nonviolent
peacemaking as armies devote to war? CPT strives to enact a living answer
to that question.
The SPEAK Network
"To transform situations of injustice through
linking people together to use their voice and pray for change. Through
bringing change to situations of injustice we want to share our faith in an
all loving all powerful creator God."
I:58
“I58
is a fellowship of radical Christians involved in direct action movements
and grassroots political activities. We make our decisions together as a
community bound by faith and have no need for leaders. We stand together
against injustice in its various forms and the economical and political
structures that allow them to exist. Power and profit have brought us a
world of war, environmental destruction and global exploitation. We stand
against these for the dignity of all God's creation.”
London Mennonite Centre
The London Mennonite Centre is dedicated to
introducing, promoting and embodying Mennonite and Anabaptist ideas and

reconciliation, in the context of following the way of Jesus, are shared
through relationships, dialogue, hospitality, lectures, seminars, conflict
transformation training, book sales and library services.
Peace School
Have you ever wondered what peace really looks like?

area of life; local and global.
