CWN.org - LONDON - A recent poll shows that most Britons think Christianity will have vanished from the United Kingdom within the next 100 years.

This sanctuary once echoed the sermons of Britain's great abolitionist preachers. In the critical days of World War Two, Supreme Allied Commander Dwight Eisenhower sat in this church and very likely prayed for the success of the D-day invasion. And it's said that British leaders discussed the future state of Israel here.

After being closed down by the Church of England in the 1970s, St. Mark's Church in London's West End was adopted by an evangelical congregation, Commonwealth Church. the rest/video
