TEAM
CHRIS KIMBANGI
Chris is married to Catherine and has two wonderful daughters. He loves Jesus, his family, people and sometimes exercise. Chris enjoys being an elder and would love you to say 'Hi', anytime.
STUART PARKER
Stuart is an elder of Hope Church and leads the pastoral care team along with his wife Jean. Stuart explored various religions while at university, but became a Christian aged 20 after discovering the person of Jesus through reading the Gospel of John. He loves the outdoors and claims to enjoy the occasional triathlon!
DAN RIDDLE
Dan is an Elder at Hope Church. He is married to Charlie and works full-time as a Civil Servant. Having encountered God in an unexpected way as an atheist, he passionately believes nobody is beyond God's grace.
MALCOLM KAYES
Malcolm has been joyfully married to Pam for over 50 years, they have two married daughters and four wonderful granddaughters. He ‘retired’ from Full Time Church leadership in 2017 but continues to serve several churches in Commission. Sport (especially Liverpool FC) and Music are key interests for Malcolm, whose message sign off is ‘Keep pressing On’.
RACHEL MAY
Rachel is our Operations Coordinator. She is married to Wil and they have four wonderful daughters. Her story is one of loving and living for God from a young age, and this is hopefully visible from her heart for worship, being outside in His creation, and being creative like Him.
LUCY MAY
Lucy is the Intern this year at Hope Church. She has just finished her A-levels, and is now primarily serving in Kidswork. She loves a long walk, doing some textiles, dungarees, and of course Jesus!
