Life In the Spirit Experience

I have been a Methodist Minister for 20 years and have led ARM-UK since 2012. I am married to Julie and we have 2 daughters and have recently become grandparents. I enjoy painting, photography, travel and playing the guitar and singing.

I’m 58 and live in Timsbury, Somerset with my wife, Clare and our 3 grown up children. I work as an IT consultant for a company called CGI. I’m a musician. I sing and I play the guitar and the drums in our worship band.

Born 1968 in Tansley, Derbyshire. I was born into a Methodist family and have attended church throughout my life and gave my life to the Lord at a Billy Graham mission at Aston Villa (1984). I am a father of two and grandfather of nine. I run my own business training forklift  operators. I was accredited as a Local Preacher in 2014. I have served with ARM-UK in the UK and abroad including Estonia, Finland and Barbados. In  November 2019 I married Kate and we moved to Marlow in 2022 where Kate is  the Superintendent of the High Wycombe circuit.

I am married to David and we have two daughters. I am the Children & Family Worker at Peasedown St John Methodist Church and for more than 30 years was a teacher in Early Years education. Our first grandchild, Luca was born in November and I am really enjoying being his Nanna.

I live in Hucknall, Nottinghamshire.
I’ve been married to Mark for almost
31 years and we have one daughter,
Lauren. I work as a Payroll Manager
providing payroll bureau services for
Charities and other nonprofit
organisations. Looking forward to
sharing in ministry with you.

I have been a member of the Aldersgate Ministry team since 2019. I am a member  of the Peasedown St John Methodist church and am an active member of the congregation being a fully paid up member of the PA team and can been found most Sundays pushing the buttons on the mixing desk at the back of the church. I am also a Circuit steward and am responsible for the manses and I am a member of the circuit finance committee. I am married to Anna and have three children: Chloe, Benjamin and Jacob. I enjoy DIY and travelling and managed to combine these two when I converted a van into campervan with Anna, which we now regularly use to go exploring at weekends.

Family: 1 husband, 3 daughters, 2 granddaughters

Homes: 3 countries, 14 houses, now settled in Peasedown

Jobs: many but almost all as a palliative care nurse, now retired

Passionate about: cycling, gardening, singing with a gospel choir, facilitating food justice, the environment, but most of all passionate about God and encouraging people to grow in faith.

I attend a Methodist Church in Crewe, which was the first in the UK to host a LISE weekend. I have been involved with many Life in the Spirit Experiences both in England & abroad. I’m really looking forward to seeing the Holy Spirit move as we share together in your LISE weekend.

I am married to Ian and we have 3 children. I am a nurse, working in our local hospital. Currently, I am serving as the Senior Steward at church where I am also the cook for the monthly Lunch Club. I like to meet people where they are so I am part of the team serving Holy Communion to people on the street outside the church once a month.
