Leadership

We have been without a minister since the end of 2003.  At present our leadership consists of a group of four Elders/Deacons:  

Peter             PETER WEBSTER 
       S
ecretary/Treasurer

"My wife Peggy and I spent the first part of our married life in Australia and, after moving back to England and later retiring to Cornwall, joined the church in 1992.  Three of our four children live in Australia and we enjoy
going to see them every two years or so.  In this church we have both experienced a time of fellowship and spiritual growth within a loving and caring congregation.   I have been treasurer for most of that time, having withstood the onslaught of others seeking to take over this prestigious position!!  
(I have been also blessed with a sense of humour!)"


Andrew
ANDREW MITCHELL
Sunday Worship Leader
   Bible Study Leader
    and Pastoral Adviser
 


"I have lived in Newquay since 1989;  I am married to Jane and we have two daughters.  I came to know Christ as my Saviour when I was 6 years old.  Growing up as the son of
a Pastor the last thing I ever thought I would be doing would be preaching and leading worship! - but God had other plans!  If I had to say what gives me the greatest thrill in life, apart from seeing others come to know Jesus Christ as their Saviour, it is to see people come to a deeper understanding of the Bible - how God has led His people in the past and promised to guide them in the future. One thing is certainly true - life in God's service and family is not dull!
"


Matthew
          
MATTHEW BRAY 
      Audio/tape ministry,
         Alpha Course and
  
        Bible Study Leader

"I have been coming to this church for over 10 years.   I am married to Alison and have three young sons.   I enjoy family life - especially going away in our camper van for short breaks.  In the church I run Alpha Courses and Follow-up Bible Studies - it is one of these courses that led to the beginning of our fun family Church Social Nights.  During the week I work as an electrical engineer, specialising in satellite installations - perhaps that's why I find myself looking after the audio/tape ministry in the church!  I am also a member of "The Gideons" and spend most of my time with the Gideons talking to 11 and 12 year olds in their school classes about the Bible and the Good News of Jesus Christ and distributing Bibles in the schools."


Angela                 
     
ANGELA BRAY
        Church Prayer Meetings
            and Pastoral Care

"I have been a member of Newquay URC since 1994 and a part of the leadership since 1998.   I became a Christian at an early age and I enjoy the fellowship within our church and the chance to grow together in Christ as a family.  I am particularly involved in the organisation of the Church prayer meetings and also take on some of the responsibilities for pastoral care – taking time to visit those who are poorly or otherwise unable to get to church services. Outside of church I am kept busy with my family (I have three children and eight grandchildren!)"
