MCC East London is a congregation of the Metropolitan Community Church, located in East London. MCC East London started as a project of MCC North London, "a parish extension group was established with the objective to form a church".[1] MCC East London held its first service on Pentecost Sunday in 1991.[1] In August 2010 Reverend Caroline Redfearn, a regular preacher for and active member of MCC East London, died from a cancer-related illness.[2] In November 2004 she was the first African-Caribbean descent woman to be ordained at MCC in the United Kingdom.[2][3]
The church was met at a number of locations, including:
- St Bartholomew's Church and Community Centre, East Ham[4]
- Positive East, Stepney[5]
- the Unitarian Church in Stratford[6]
