Development Worker (Church & Community) based in the South East
Scripture Union has been part of my life in one form or another since I was very young. My earliest memories of reading the Bible are with my mum at bedtime using the 'Simon and Sarah' books which were published by Scripture Union in the early 70s. I believe passionately in the value and necessity of sharing the Word of God within the family. My husband Phil and I have experienced many precious moments exploring the treasures within the Word with our own children Phoebe and Jacob.
My involvement in ministry among children and families began in 1983. Everything I have experienced in my journey so far has helped develop a deep passion for the nurture and discipleship of children within a faith community, equipping them for a lifetime of service to God. Through this journey I have experienced many models of effective evangelism and outreach, numerous trials and countless reasons to praise God and celebrate. I value the opportunities I have to work alongside other Scripture Union staff, associates and volunteers in the continual development and exploration of culturally relevant ways to make Jesus known to the many children, young people and families who have not yet heard the good news of Jesus Christ.
