Hello, I’m Irene.
I am a mother of two and grandmother of four. I’ve been attending

King’s for about 10 years now and I love the sense of ‘Family’.

It seems members of King’s are all so willing to look out for, and care for each other. For instance, when I was unwell, they helped me in any way they could, from ferrying me to hospital appointments to taking me out for a walk along the seafront. They did my housework – and even organised a rota to cook and deliver hot meals to my door each evening when I was too ill to cook!! Thankfully I am now fully recovered and returned to my job as a Driving Instructor which I have been doing for over 20 years.

I haven’t always been a Christian. My salvation about 17 years ago was very powerful, sudden and dramatic. I have been attending church ever since. I have to say that my life has become totally different since then – unrecognisably so actually! That doesn’t mean problems vanished overnight, but I now have the strength in the Lord to know that He will never allow me to go through more than I can handle and that He will always be with me – no matter what!

I am part of the King’s Money Advice Centre (kmac) which started just over a year ago. Although this is often challenging it is also very rewarding. I am also involved with the Crèche on Sundays.

I love being a part of the King’s Church family!  It’s brilliant to see all the things that God is doing amongst us, and with us. It would take a manuscript to tell it all.
