Mary Smith

Mary grew up in a Christian home, hearing from the Bible and singing Colin Buchanan songs! The refrain of her favourite, “The Lord is King, He’s gonna look after everything, Every single thing in this world”, became increasingly precious as she learned to trust in Jesus, our Saviour and King, for herself.  She is excited to be able to spend a year studying God’s Word and serving the church which has been her home since she was 7 day’s old.

Sharron grew up in a Christian family, but her faith flourished during her time as a teacher in a Church of England primary school.

Liz loves to be organised. Married to Mark with two grown up daughters Holly and Jemma and a precious Grandson Elliott.

Ian served as Churchwarden for 14 years before being made Warden Emeritus, an honourary role, in 2023. He’s also a house group leader and occasionally leads services in St John’s, usually when no-one else is available!

Teresa grew up in a non-Christian home, before deciding that God really did exist at the age of 16. Because of this she has a passion to share the love of Jesus with any children who will listen to this amazingly good news.

Sarah became a Christian in her first year at uni through the Cambridge Christian Union.

Charles Hayward became a Christian in 1980 whilst in his second year at university. 

James grew up in Dubai a non-Christian home, a self-confessed atheist by his early teens. He came to trust in Jesus shortly before turning 18, and now longs to keep growing in love for Jesus and in ability to help others love Jesus, too.

Jon was born in Chester, but his formative years were spent in north London where he committed his life to Jesus aged 10 after hearing the testimony of blind singer-songwriter Marilyn Baker.

Priscila’s best friend is the sunshine, which isn’t surprising seeing as she’s originally from Valencia, Spain. Although she’d love to live in a ‘forever summer’ we’re grateful she’s settled for Cheshire!
