Karen – and living with grief

I am Priest in Charge of the parish of Christ Church, South Nutfield, in the Diocese of Southwark, south of London in the United Kingdom.

A lifetime of work in water development in Africa

I was born in Kenya and lived much of my life in South Africa, moving to the UK in 2000.  For 46 years wonderful years I was married to Karen, until she tragically died in July 2023.  We have two adult children, four grandchildren, and a registered therapy dog named Barley.  

I am a qualified Civil Engineer and have worked all my life, until recently, in development work in Africa, focusing on water.  For a number of years I shared my time between development work and my parish responsibilities as a half-stipend Priest in the Church of England but I have now ceased my work as a development engineer.

My main interests are:-

    • helping people to decide in what (or rather, in WHOM) to put their faith;
    • supporting people of faith to deepen their faith in authentic, transformative ways; and
    • calling out injustice and unfairness in the structures of the world we live in, and supporting those who suffer as a consequence.
