Abstract
I provide the context of the parish of St Mary Islington, London, where I served as vicar from 2000–2009, through a focus on worship and particular public events of witness: Good Friday processions; a South African update of the medieval Chester Mystery plays; civic services with interviews with Muslims; a Christmas Day BBC radio broadcast; and the pioneering of Praise Nights. The use of dance, drama, art and sculpture in worship and mission is natural and effective.
