Meet Our Team
The church leadership comprises our pastors, church officers and deacons. Here is a little about some of the people who serve at Ferring.
Minister
Revd Robin Brenchley
I came to Ferring from Sittingbourne in Kent where I had spent 20 years as a deacon and latterly as a pastor whilst serving as a Police Officer.
In 2016 I retired from the police and studied theology at Spurgeon’s College.
My background has given me a wide experience of dealing with people’s problems and I am rarely shocked!
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, walking, cinema and spending time with my family.
Robin is an accredited Baptist Minister
Pastor
Marion Brenchley
I came to Ferring with Robin in 2019. Previously I had set up and run the church office in Sittingbourne, providing a first point of ministry contact for those in need, as well as serving as Secretary for the local branch of Churches Together.
Marion is a locally recognised Baptist Minister.
Secretary
Paul Gilbert
I have had a varied church background and and experience as a Deacon and Church Secretary. As Church Secretary, I am responsible teh day to day life of the church and for liaising with the Baptist Union and local Baptist Association as well as the wider church family.
Treasurer
John Appleton
I relocated to Ferring in 2010, transferring my membership from West Worthing Baptist Church in 2012, and have been our treasurer for several years. I have responsibility for all the church finances. In my spare time, I enjoy walking the dog, playing golf, and singing in the local village choir.
