Our minister is Revd. Cameron Stirk. Cameron is married to Lucy, and they have three boys, Aidan, Callum and Ronan. The minister is responsible for the spiritual leadership of the church, together with the Stewards, and leads many of our worship services. In addition to this church, Cameron is also minister of nearby Shipton and New Earswick chapels. He can be contacted on 01904 768326.

The Children's and Youth Worker

We have appointed a Children's and Youth Worker - Greg Roberts - to develop, encourage and co-ordinate Christian work amongst children and young people within the church and to establish and develop new work within the wider community.

The Church Stewards

A team of eight Church Stewards work with the minister in the leadership the church. As well as providing support to the minister the stewards have a particular responsibility for ensuring that worship services of the church take place. Stewards are elected from within the membership of the church and usually serve for up to four years. The Senior Church Steward is Stephen Spain.

The Church Council

The Church Council is the decision making and legally responsible body in the Church. All formal correspondence with the church should be address to the secretary of the church council, Mr Jim Stonehouse, at the church address below.

The Pastoral Visitors

Pastoral visitation is the formal way in which the people of the church exercise care for each other. All members and regular worshippers are assigned to a pastoral visitor. The large team of pastoral visitors work in co-ordination with the minister and the pastoral secretary, Mrs Gail Lazenby, to maintain a church community where all are cared for.
