Pioneering Youth Worker

Originally from the south coast, I moved here to study worship at Nexus ICA in 2012 and I have been a youth leader in Coventry since 2019, leading in my local church context. In September 2024 I joined the team at Coventry YFC as the Pioneering Youth Worker. The vision to see young people’s lives changed by Jesus is what excited me most about joining.

I believe wholeheartedly that Jesus still radically transforms lives, like He did mine, and I can’t wait to take this message to the young people of Coventry!

I’m really passionate about raising disciples by equipping the Christian young people in Coventry to be strengthened in their faith and confident in sharing the love of Christ with those around them.

I’m also excited and motivated by the opportunity to introduce Jesus to young people who don’t yet know Him.

I’ll be working with churches across Coventry to support the fantastic work they are already doing, as well as seeking to pioneer new youth ministry opportunities. I’ll also be present in local schools to demonstrate the love of God. And I look forward to connecting with youth leaders all across the City to see how we can build His kingdom together, in Coventry as it is in Heaven.

I love preaching at youth groups, leading worship, raising up young leaders, mentoring young people, networking with other youth leaders, leading small group discussions and so much more – I’d love to come to your context and partner with you!

I’m also a foodie, a cat lover, a follower of Nottingham Forest FC and I love adventuring and exploring the UK with my wife Bethia.

I’m so expectant for all that God will do through this generation in Coventry! To Him be the glory
