Our team
elders & wives
Simon & Fiona Turner
Simon is our Lead Elder. Simon with his wife Fiona and their 3 kids Katie, Amelia and Olly moved from Gateway Church, Swindon to New Life, Biggin Hill in 2016. Having spent a short time living and serving in Mumbai, India it was clear that God was leading them to come and serve at New Life. They are passionate about the local community and have a heart for the nations. Simon is also an avid runner and passionate Welsh Rugby fan!
Rob & Tracy Lewis
Rob's involvement with New Life has ranged from running kids clubs to sorting out the heating! As a qualified plumber with a passion for the local church, there’s no telling what he may be involved in. Rob is part of our preaching team and with his wife Tracy, run our Alpha course and can often be found in the foyer as hosts.
Gareth & Lesley Wales
Gareth has served as an elder for 20+ years and was team leader until a couple of years ago when he handed the leadership onto Simon. Both Gareth and Lesley have been part of New Life Church for the past 40 years having met in the youth group. Gareth is a man of many talents and can turn his hand to almost anything. Lesley and Gareth love spending time with their grandchildren and enjoy their caravan!
Isaac & Suzanne Smith
Isaac was born in Biggin Hill but moved away when his family church planted, first in Penge and then in Canterbury. Returning to Penge some years later he met and married Suzanne. They have now joined the church in Biggin Hill with their two boys after moving back into the area.
