Andy Hickford
The leader of the staff team and senior minister is Andy Hickford. Andy was born in Surrey, educated at the London School of theology and was ten years a youth worker in Luton before coming to the church in 1996. He is married to Cerys and they have three children.
How do you describe Andy? We could write about his gifts of communication which see him speaking to large crowds, and writing books and articles. We could write about his love of the outdoors and running, mountains and fishing in particular. We could write about his sense of humour
Alternatively we could leave the task of describing Andy to those who know him best – his family.
‘I love my dad, but I wouldn’t marry someone like him’ (Naomi)
‘Wherever we are, whatever we are doing Dads always on a mission’ (Josh)
‘Andy’s a very gifted man – but none of those gifts are any use to me what so ever! (wife Cerys)
Andy is, of course, considerably older than his colleague Joe (website editting is such fun! :) JD)
Oh, but what a wise and caring senior minister he is, who sets such a wonderful example to considerably younger members of staff (Ooh yes, website editting is indeed such fun!) SP
