Our pastor is Tim Mills. He was saved on Easter Sunday 1976. He is married to Deborah and they have three young children. Tim trained at the London Theological Seminary. He then had different kinds of ministries in Wolverhampton, Manchester, Belfast and Swansea before becoming our pastor in May 1998. Most of our Sunday preaching (about 70%) is done by Tim. If we were based in Minneapolis he might be called “pastor for preaching and vision”.
Rob Plant is one of our elders and an engineer. Rob came to university in Bradford more than thirty years ago. He and Jane came to our church as students. They married, and—five grown up children later—are still the backbone of the fellowship. Among other things, Rob preaches to us about 10 times a year and heads up our CYC (Christian Youth Club).
Keith Mitton is one of our elders and a professional musician. He was saved when he was 25 in an evangelistic crusade in Belfast and was greatly helped by the ministry of the late Herbert Carson in Bangor. Early in 2004, the Lord took his wife, Chris. Among other things, Keith preaches for us about 10 times a year and heads up our One Way Club (for younger children) and our fortnightly door to door work.
Luke Plant is our youngest elder and our Assistant Pastor. We are hoping that, one day, he will be a preacher and pastor overseas.
