Dick Lucas (minister)

Richard Charles "Dick" Lucas (born September 10, 1925) is an Anglican evangelical cleric, best known for his long ministry at St Helen's Bishopsgate in London, England, and for his work as founder of the Proclamation Trust and the Cornhill Training Course.

Lucas was born September 10, 1925, in Lewes, Sussex. He was converted to evangelical Christianity in 1941 under the camp ministry of E. J. H. Nash. Lucas served in the Royal Navy during World War II. He was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge and Ridley Hall, and was ordained in the Church of England, serving a first curacy at St Nicholas' Church, Sevenoaks.

Lucas was Rector of St. Helen's Bishopsgate from 1961 to 1998. Under his leadership, St. Helen's grew from a tiny congregation of a few individuals to a large thriving church with a ministry to city workers, families, students and young professionals. He developed a reputation for strong Bible teaching and preaching. He emerged as a widely respected evangelical speaker, particularly at the Keswick Convention. He was outspoken among his generation of evangelical ministers in encouraging systematic expositional preaching. With this in mind, Lucas was among those who established a popular and widely-duplicated programme of training workshops for preachers.
