American International Church

Whitfield Memorial Church, home of the American International Church.

The American International Church, currently located at 79a Tottenham Court Road, London, was established to cater for American expatriates resident in London. Today it caters to approximately 30 different nationalities. The church is run on the American denominational tradition.[1] The church was originally named the American Church in London but changed its name in 2013.[2]

The building occupied by the church was originally the Whitefield Memorial Church and the American church took over the building when they moved from their original home in North Audley Street in 1972.

The church is particularly known for its soup kitchen which feeds around 70 people per day.[3]

The London Chinese Lutheran Church meets at the same location.[4]
