About Me
It all started on Sunday School Anniversaries at Providence Mission, Smethwick, where I would sing a solo along with my friends as part of the service. This led to me joining a group called Dunamis for 13 years based at the same church. This ministry covered children’s work, open air, evangelistic meetings and prison visits at Winson Green and Honiley.
I had felt the Lord’s calling to sing at the age of 16, so when the group disbanded I invested in my own PA system and continued singing and sharing my faith at various church meetings and events. At this time I also successfully auditioned for Roger Jones’ Angel Voices, and then toured the UK and Israel with the rest of the cast. Following this, I also toured with Pharisee and Snakes and Ladders and appeared on the God Channel with Roger singing one of his Songs and have sung on several of Roger’s albums.
I have been a Christian since I was 7 years old and currently attend St Martin’s Church, Walsall with my Husband Gary who I married in September 2005. I am actively involved in the PCC and a part of the Ministry Team.
In the past, I have been involved in various missions and evangelical events with Operation Mobilisation, Youth with a Mission at home and abroad.
My work background has been in administration/secretarial work.
Spare time if I have any! I enjoy music, reading, card making and spending time with Gary, family, and friends. I also have to admit to being a Trekkie (Star Trek fan) and eating far too much chocolate!.
If you invited me to one of your events or meetings it would include me sharing my faith together with contemporary songs along with some praise and worship.
