The Church Index / A Book of Metropolitan Churches and Church Enterprise: Part I. Kensington

The volume systematically surveys more than fifty churches in a single metropolitan parish, supplying historical, ecclesiastical, architectural, clerical, religious, and social accounts for each, accompanied by illustrations. It treats both established and nonconforming congregations, and gathers essays on denominational differences, church building, music, population, and the parochial system. Prefatory material outlines geographic scope and the work’s aim to create a permanent, comparative record of contemporary church enterprise, while a dedication recognizes significant lay support for suburban church extension. An index, notes, and practical details complete the compendium, making it a reference for local church organization and building efforts.
