I’m Tom, Lead Minister here at LBC. I grew up in a Baptist church on the Wirral and went off to study at London School of Theology (LST). I completed my ministerial training at Regent’s Park, Oxford whilst serving as Minister-in-Training at a church in Worcestershire and was then ordained in July 2017. I have since served for 8 years as minister of a church in Leicestershire before joining the team here at LBC. I hold a BA in Theology, a Post Graduate Diploma in Applied Theology, and I’m currently studying towards a Masters Degree.

I’m married to Ellie (who I met at LST) and we have a young daughter and another child on the way (due January 2026).

My passion is to see individuals establish deep roots of faith and discipleship in Jesus Christ that enable them to flourish in the life of hope, joy and purpose that God has called them into. I long for people to come to know the love of God in their hearts not just their heads, and to see the work of the Holy Spirit bring transformation in them and through them. I am passionate about the Church as God’s means for equipping and encouraging followers of Christ to the work of sharing the Gospel and establishing the Kingdom of God on earth, and I love nothing more than supporting people in the mission and ministry that God has called them to on their own daily frontlines.

Outside of church life I am a National League hockey umpire and spend many a weekend each year umpiring in the highest domestic leagues in England (both indoor and outdoor). I’m a proud Leicester Tigers fan, a disillusioned Manchester United fan, and a (not-so-secret) lover of the Great British Bake Off!

NOTE: My usual day off is Saturday and I generally work from home each weekday afternoon

Hi, I'm Simon and I'm working part-time at Lymm Baptist to support the life of the church in all its various forms. Alongside this, I run a Christian youth charity called Voice, helping children and young people to explore and express faith in Jesus through music.

I am married to Hannah, have two children, Alex and Ivy, and, having grown up in London, moved to the North West in 2009. I play the bass trombone, play badminton and support West Ham United!

I am so thankful for the opportunity to encourage others in their journeys of faith whilst sharing through word and deed the love of God to our local community.

My wife Bibi & I have attended Lymm Baptist Church since we got married in 1992. We were drawn to it by the friendly welcome we received and the care shown to us. I have worked in local government, academia and was until recently site manager at LBC. We have a son and a daughter: Harry & Emilia. I became a Christian many years ago at university.

Since joining Lymm Baptist Church, I have been a home group leader, deacon, elder responsible for prayer and also community engagement activities and mission. I am currently lay chaplain and support Bibi in leading the Pastoral Team.

My personal goals are to make our church a warm and welcoming place, help everyone use the gifts and talents God has given them to the full and seek transformation of our community through prayer, faith, discipleship and practical demonstrations of God's love. In my spare time, I enjoy playing squash and tennis, gardening and watching football matches.

Hello! I’m George, and I’m the Youth Lead at Lymm Baptist Church. I grew up in a Church in the Midlands, and felt God’s call on my life at 17, when I was at a Christian festival with my Church youth!

From there I ended up doing two Gap Years with Youth for Christ, travelling around the country and getting youth work experience on the job, whilst growing a deeper relationship with God. After that, I began a degree in Applied Youth and Theology at Moorlands Bible College and as part of my placement for the degree began interning in youth and children’s work in the Church I had grown up in! After I had finished my degree course, I stayed on at the Church as a member of staff until after two more years I felt God calling me to new pastures – and that’s how I found Lymm!

I’m really passionate about helping young people understand the Gospel and the impact that a personal relationship with God can have on their lives, as well as navigating the various challenges of teenage life.

Having lived on the Isle of Man for thirty years I moved to Lymm with my husband, Kenny, in 2019 to be near family. We received a warm welcome at Lymm Baptist Church and are happy to be of service currently involved in stewarding, assisting the finance team and generally encouraging the faith of the young, old and anyone in between!

I came to know Jesus as a child after being taken to church from a very young age and was baptised by choice at the age of sixteen. So my whole life (with all its ups and downs) is testament to God’s love, wisdom and faithfulness.

Before retirement I worked mainly part-time in admin/reception roles. I know it makes me weird but I really enjoy public speaking. I’m an avid reader. I’ve found a great exercise/dance class here in Lymm and it’s a joy to spend time with grandchildren.

I joined Lymm Baptist Church in the year 2000 after a job relocation from Newcastle and have been serving as an Elder on the church's leadership team for over 15 years. I am currently appointed as church Treasurer and am also involved in the preaching and worship-leading ministry. My wife Emma and I have been married for over 25 years and we have 3 grown up children who are studying at university.

Brought up in a Christian home, I made a personal commitment to Jesus at the age of 6 and was baptised as a teenager - I have witnessed God’s continuous faithfulness ever since, even through the difficult times.

I have a full-time job in the IT industry, and in my spare time enjoy hill walking and mountain biking.

I have been a member of Lymm Baptist Church for nearly 20 years but have only recently been baptised. My faith journey has been a bit of a meander - from Presbyterian Sunday School, through Church of England and then Lymm Baptist where my faith is now settled and established.

I’m married to Debbie, have three grown up children and numerous grandchildren, many of whom can be seen “enjoying church” at the front on a Sunday morning.

I worked for over 40 years mainly as a Business/IT Consultant – working mainly for UK Government, consultancy companies and finally in the Oil and Gas industry. I stopped employed work a couple of years ago. Since then, I’ve been reconnecting with friends, spending time with family and helping LBC’s admin team to develop and clarify processes and implement ChurchSuite.

I am by nature an Analyst, wanting to fully understand situations/issues by delving into the detail. This attribute and my work background can give a valuable and sometimes different perspective in the life of the church. I’m learning (much to my surprise) that God can and will use me and my experience for his Kingdom purposes.

“There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work” (1 Corinthians 12:5-6)

I am also a Trustee of the North-West Baptist Association (NWBA) and Milton Baptist Church in Acton Bridge.

I have attended Lymm Baptist Church since 2004, when I became a Christian. I always felt very safe when I entered the building and a warm comfortable glow within. I attended a few Alpha courses and couldn’t stop asking questions until one day I got to the point when I realised that I would never have all the answers; that is why it's called faith! I have been baptised and have attended Lymm Baptist church ever since.

Over the years, I have been involved with various activities, particularly the youth work and have been job sharing the church administrator role with Alison since January 2013.

I have 2 grown up children and a granddaughter, who keeps me busy.

I grew up in a Christian home, and came to know Jesus Christ as my personal saviour at a Youth Camp at Lee Abbey when I was 17.

I have attended LBC since moving to Lymm in 1995 and have always been actively involved.

I have been a member of staff since January 2013, sharing the role of Church Administrator with Sam.

I am married to Will and have three grown-up children.
