OUR CLERGY
Our Vicar - Ben Sear
I am married to Claudia and we have two daughters called Phoebe and Robyn. Before training to become a Vicar I originally trained as a scientist and worked for organisations such as the Medical Research Council. I am a fan of playing racket sports, music (you may not share my taste), barbecues and spending time with friends and family
I am very glad to be able to serve the churches and communities of Maresfield and Nutley.
If you asked me why I do this job, it's because I am convinced that Jesus is alive and has good news for every person. It doesn't matter who you are, where you are from, what you are like, the good news (the gospel) is for you. I enjoy helping people find out more about Jesus and growing in their Christian faith.
Thank you for taking the time to visit our website and we would love it if you felt able to visit us in person. If you would like to get in touch beforehand, please don't hesitate to do so. My number is 01825 508352.
God bless
