Mark Lawrence

Minister

Mark Lawrence is the Superintendent minister of the Market Drayton Methodist Circuit, which means he is the minister of MDMC and also Ashley Methodist Church. He is married to Carolyn and they are very much a team, working in leadership together. They both have a passion for the great commission of Jesus in Matthew 28:20, and seek to share the love of Jesus as well as to help people to grow in their faith wherever they are on their Christian journey.

Kev oversees all our work with children and young people, both within the church and as we reach out into the community. Kev has good relationships with the schools in the town and offers support and help where he is able. Kev is also a brilliant guitarist and runs our ukelele worship groups as well as frequently playing in the worship band on a Sunday morning.
