Jesus Christ is the leader of our church (Colossians 1:18). We seek to discern his will for our lives as we study the Bible with the help of the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16-17). The Lord Jesus also gives us leaders, including elders and deacons, who are appointed by the church members.

Tim Lofthouse
Elder
Tim, together with his wife Sarah, leads one of our mid-week small groups. They have four children and are also foster parents. Sarah is involved with youth and childrens’ work and Tim makes our worship even more lively with the help of his conga drums.
They both love diving into the Bible and unpacking the riches of God’s character and His story.
Yee Gan Ong
Elder
Yee Gan was born in Malaysia but has been in the U.K. since 1981 when he came over to study. He feels very grateful to have been brought up in a loving Christian home and he accepted the Lord Jesus as his personal saviour at the age of 13.
Yee Gan’s Father was a church at church and passed on his love for studying and sharing the riches to be found in God’s Word, the Bible. When not at work in the hospital, he loves to indulge his passion for sport and science fiction as well as finding time to practise the piano, an ability he uses in the music ministry at church. Yee Gan leads one of our Growth Groups together with his wife Emma.

Elder
As well as being an elder in the church Nick is a full time teacher of RE at the local secondary school. Nick is also married to Sarah, who works at a local primary school, and they have two grown up children called Bethan and Jake.
