The Team

Rev. Norman Brown is our team leader in Wellington Street. Norman has been with us since 1995, during which time the congregation has been growing spiritually and numerically. Under his leadership the congregation is taking the exciting step of relocating to an area of population growth in our parish area. One of Norman's passions is to spread the Good News, not just at home but overseas. He is married to Lorna and they have three grown-up children. He can be contacted on nab@thebrownsonline.org.uk

Eleanor Drysdale is our Deaconess. Eleanor has a key role encouraging ministry among the women in the congregation, but she is also actively involved in all areas of church life. Eleanor's ministry is characterised by a sense of humour, forthrightness and energy.

Rev. Emerson McDowell is our Associate Minister. Emerson joined our team in Wellington Street after eleven years with the Department of Agriculture, and a period as our assistant minister. Emerson is married to Paula and they have two young children

Desi Montgomery is our Pastoral Assistant. Desi's main duty is to visit and minister to the housebound, elderly or ill in the congregation. He can often be seen jogging between visits. Desi joined us in 2003 after a career in teaching. He is married to Patsy and they have a grown up family.

Our Musical Director is Erin McBride. Erin co-ordinates the musicians and the choirs in the congregation. If you would like to be part of the music ministry please contact her.
