I was born and raised in Ohio, USA and have lived in the UK since 2014. I love spending time with people of all ages, but especially children and young people! You can usually find me at Rowheath serving with children at church on a Sunday morning, in the week with families at Stay n Play, with children and young people at one of our after-school clubs or in the community café. Since I’m American it means I have a funny accent, but please don’t hold that against me! I love sunny days, dog walking and good hugs. |

I spent 10 years working in a bank before feeling the calling to mission. In 2004 I started Syzygy Missions Support Network, which cares for and supports mission workers. I love gardening, cricket and skiing. |
|
Our family has grown up in Birmingham after we moved here in 1999, joining Rowheath Pavilion Church in 2017 when we moved across the city to this area. I am passionate about justice and mission, challenging things that oppose these and seeing people fulfil their potential. I enjoy meeting people and learning new things. I have worked for the church’s international development charity Christian Aid for over 12 years, and am a trustee of an interfaith charity Mums and Families. |

After a globe trotting life leading from Pakistan to UK to USA, I arrived in Birmingham in 2016. I have been home educating my 3 sons since they were born - now strapping teenagers - teaching chemistry in schools and colleges and home school groups, knitting, playing the piano and doing lots of walking.
My family and I joined Rowheath Pavilion Church on our arrival in Birmingham and value the solid Christian presence in the community that this church represents.

Born in Birmingham, I studied Japanese and have worked mainly in the engineering and software industries. Life has been a great adventure since Jesus came into my life when I was eighteen, and I love exploring the meaning of life with the people who come on Alpha. I enjoy walking in the mountains. |
