Terry Virgo
Born in Brighton, England Terry Virgo was sixteen years old when he became a Christian, but for four years he struggled between a very exciting world, a very formal church and feelings of inadequacy. The baptism in the Spirit rekindled his passion for God and he gave up his job in London and became a full-time door-to-door evangelist in the Brighton area.
After a couple of years Terry went to London Bible College. While he was in London two things particularly impressed him: the clear expositional preaching of Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones at Westminster Chapel and a group of Spirit-filled Christians who met on Sunday mornings for glorious times of worship. From then on Terry longed to see New Testament church life that was firmly rooted in the Word and filled with the Spirit.
In 1968 Terry moved to Seaford on the south coast of England, where he began leading a small group of believers. His goal was to build a new radical church life founded on the principles that he saw in the New Testament. While he was there someone prophesied that God would take him outside the boundaries of his local church to help other groups of believers. This soon started to happen as a number of small groups of people in the South East with similar motivations asked Terry to come and help them. This signalled the beginning of the ministry, which has grown into the work of Newfrontiers.
