Colin Urquhart (1940 – 13 September 2021) was an English Evangelical Christian minister, speaker, author, and apostolic and Neocharismatic leader in the United Kingdom.[1][2]
Early life
Urquhart was born in Twickenham, London, England.[1] His father was an architect who designed and built camps for the Ministry of Defense.[1] As a boy, Urquhart experienced bombing from World War II in his neighborhood.[1]
He described his family as "non-Christian".[1] However, he enjoyed singing so he joined the choir of the Anglican Church in Twickenham when he was ten years old.[1] At his request, his parents gave him a book of prayers for his birthday.[1]
Urquhart played cricket for his school and a local club.[1] Middlesex offered him a trial, but he decided not to go.[1] When he was thirteen years old, he asked the vicar how he could become ordained, but the minimum age was sixteen.[1] After school, he followed his family's plan and studied with an architectural firm for a year.[1]
Urquhart still wanted to become a minister with the Church of England.[1][3] He recalled, " I had to sit my A' levels before I could go to King's College. I was ordained in 1963 when I was 23."[1]
Career
He started as a curate for a church in Cheshunt for three years.[1] Next, he was sent to Letchworth in Hertfordshire where he was in charge of a district church.[1] He became involved with the Charismatic Renewal movement in the 1960s and 1970s.[3] He was the incumbent (vicar) of the parish church of St Hugh, Lewsey Luton, Bedfordshire, at the time, and during four years immense changes took place there.[1]
In 1974 he wrote a book about these experiences, called When the Spirit Comes, one of several books he authored during the 1970s.[4] At the start of 1976, he resigned as the incumbent of St Hugh's and moved with his family and two parishioners to a house in East Molesey, Surrey that was owned by Fountain Trust, an international trust involved in Christian renewal.[4] From this base he began an itinerant ministry traveling nationally and internationally, with his living costs arising solely from donations (which some Christians like to refer to as 'living on faith').Шаблон:Citation needed
Urquhart called this church called the Community of Love and Prayers which he later said: "was nothing like a hippy commune."[1] The BBC made a documentary about the Community of Love and Prayers.[1] In the later 1970s, Urquhart founded the Kingdom Faith Church in Horsham in West Sussex.[3] The church expanded over the years to seven locations and the Kingdom Faith Training College.[3]
By the early 1980s Urquhart was becoming more widely known internationally as a writer, and as a speaker at Charismatic conferences, rallies, and conventions. In the eighties he spoke at some of the Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship International Conventions in Mumbai, India, based on the theme, "Go in my name" and "If my people" in India. Urquhart recorded more than 500 Faith For Today radio messages.[5]
As of 2014, Urquhart turned over the Kingdom Faith Church to his son, Clive Urquhart.[3] However, Urquhart still spoke at conferences and was the principal of the Kingdom Faith Training College.[3]
Personal life
Urquhart's wife was Caroline.[3] Their children were Andrea, Clive, and Claire.[3] He died from cancer in 2021 at the age of 81 years.[3][6]
