![]() | Jenny Joyce became a Christian in 1989 and joined Shenley Christian Fellowship soon after the church was founded. She's remained a serving member, apart from a 5-year gap spent attending a Bible school in Spain, where she was also ordained as a Presbyter (Elder). She served there as an assistant pastor and also as a chaplain at a nursing home for elderly people, until she returned to the UK and SCF in 2010. In 2011, Jenny joined the Leadership Team, where she remained until 2019, when she also retired from her role at World Vision. Jenny felt the Lord calling her back to leadership earlier this year, and within this role, she supports SCF staff and organises the Sunday service teaching and hosting. She says, “I have watched SCF grow through many changes, highs and lows, and have seen God’s hand firmly in control, even in challenging times. I continue to watch Him steer His church toward the fulfilment of Isaiah 61:1-3, which He gave to the founding pastor and members”. jenny.joyce@scf-mk.org.uk |
