Rev Chris Sandy

The Revd. Chris Sandy will be the Minister with pastoral oversight for the Scallop group of Churches from September 2021.

Chris says:

I was born in Freetown, Sierra Leone, and presently studying for my PhD on Cross-cultural leadership in the Methodist Church in Britain. I am very excited to a part of and to serve in this Circuit, where I expect to see God's faithfulness doing exploits in the life of the Church and the community in general.

During my spare time, I like to read, listen to music, or go for a walk, in order to experience the beauty of nature.

Every blessing.
