Our Leadership Team: the Trustees

Picture
Tim Sutton, Pastor

Tim grew up in North Devon, and put his faith in Jesus at the age of 17. Tim went on to train for mission and ministry at All Nations Christian College and then Spurgeon’s College, gaining a BA (Hons) in Biblical & Cross-Cultural Studies and an MA in Advanced Christian Studies. For most of the past 30 years, Tim has served in vocational Christian mission and ministry in this country and overseas.

Tim and Annemarij joined the team at WHBC in September 2016. Tim’s vision is to see people growing and flourishing as disciple-making disciples – followers of the one and only Saviour, Jesus Christ - and grow to "Love Jesus, Share Life, and Bring Hope" near and far!

In his free time he enjoys being taken for walks by the sea by his dog, Bilbo.

Nic, Treasurer

I’m fifteen years an incomer to North Devon. I have two children, seven grandchildren and one great-granddaughter. I love looking at maps of anywhere and about anything, reading historically-set who-dun-it’s, early morning walks on the Northam Burrows and having coffee out with friends any time.

Julie, Church Secretary & Safeguarding Lead

Married with 4 grown up children, and 8 grandchildren, Julie loves playing the piano/keyboard and singing at church. Hobbies include trying to trace her family tree, reading, and watching detective programmes on the TV but her favourite pastime is playing and spending time with her grandkids.

Dave, Technical Lead
I enjoy being outside in creation, exploring North Devon and further afield. The local community is so important and I yearn to see the Light of Christ shine out to those in our village and further afield.

I am one of the Worship Leaders in the church, and serves the Mission organisation Operation Mobilisation in their ship's ministry.

David

Married to Rosie for 40 years, I’ve spent 6 years at WHBC and been on the Leadership Team since 2020. I am a Preacher and a drummer in the worship band, and I trained for ministry at Moorlands College. I consider myself a sort-of-Anglican in a Baptist church!

Graham, Outreach Lead

I’m a Christian, with one wife, three daughters, three sons in law, six grandchildren and one art studio.

I’ve been at WHBC for 3 years now. I'm married to a lovely husband. I accepted Jesus when I was 17, and I'm hoping that more young people will come to know Christ! And be saved!

I love listening to music and singing. I also love the sun so when it is shining, you may see me out in the waters swimming or paddle boarding.
I help wherever I can at church and I look forward to where God takes me in my journey with Him.

Our youth and family work is overseen by a staff member as are our buildings and facilities. For more information on these, please see here.
Loving Jesus, Sharing Life, Bringing Hope.
