There are some significant and exciting leadership changes taking place.  Both Matt and Pete will have been with the church for 3 years.  As we enter into a new season, Matt is stepping up to take responsibility as our senior church leader, Pete & Gordon will become associate pastors. Pete’s time commitment to the church will be unchanged, continuing his excellent preaching/teaching ministry and giving wider support to Matt & the church leadership team. We will continue to be blessed by Gordon’s preaching from time to time as well as his gracious pastoral care which has become so much appreciated by us all.

Please pray for God’s guidance & power through this further transition, especially for Matt as he ‘steps up’ & for Pete as he ‘steps back’. Pete, Matt & Gordon have brought us a long way forward over the past almost three years – we love & greatly appreciate them, their wives & their families.

On Sunday the 19^th April we formally released Matt into his new role and responsibility.  It was a significant day and great to share it with our church family as well as wider church friends in Worcester and many of Matt and Jo’s family. Rich Johnson, Vicar of All Saints Worcester shared a significant message with the church. Gordon Neale, who is Elim’s regional Leader for the Midlands and North East joined with us to commission Matt into the role.
