Parish of St Stephen - Walbrook, London, England
My friend Lew had a slew of a-chews! haha
===============================================
Samaritans was started in 1953 in London by a young vicar called Chad Varah, who worked in the city parish of St Stephen, Walbrook in the City. During his career he had offered counselling to his parishioners, and he increasingly wanted to do something specific to help people in distress who had no one to turn to.
Chad Varah, founder of
Samaritans
Chad makes reference to one example of a girl aged 14, whom he had buried - in unconsecrated ground. She had started her periods, but having no one to talk to believed that she had a sexually transmitted disease and took her own life.
He says, I might have dedicated myself to suicide prevention then and there, providing a network of people you could 'ask' about anything, however embarrassing, but I didn't come to that until later.
When Chad was offered charge of the parish of St Stephen, Walbrook, in the summer of 1953 he knew that the time was right for him to launch what he called a 999 for the suicidal.
At the time, suicide was still illegal in the UK and so many people who were in difficult situations and who felt suicidal were unable to talk to anyone about it, without worrying about the consequences. A confidential emergency service for people in distress who need spiritual aid was what Chad felt was needed to address the problems he saw around him. He was, in his own words, a man willing to listen, with a base and an emergency telephone.

Dark Side of the Church: Stormtrooper crucified in London
An art installation depicting a crucified Star Wars Stormtrooper was displayed at St. Stephen's Walbrook church in London on Thursday, as part of a crucifixion-themed exhibition entitled Art Below. Exhibition called ‘Stations of the Cross’ hosts 14 crucifixion-themed artworks and was welcomed with lukewarm feeling by church followers. As a result the 'crucified Stormtrooper' was moved to the back of the church.
