Staff and Leadership

Please find below an introduction to our church leaders and members of staff.
 

Pastor: Leon Coates
Leon hails from God's own country - Yorkshire! (At least that's what we let him think). Having trained at the Master's Seminary in the USA, Leon became the Pastor of QEC in 2020. He likes the sea and all things kayaking. Leon is married to the lovely Nataly, who hails from Colombia, and they have two young ladies who give them plenty of fun. If you are ever visiting, Nataly's Colombian breakfasts are legendary. Leon is trying to stay slim .....
Deacon: Craig Le Sueur
Craig is our organisational Ninja. What Craig does not know about administration - diaries, rotas, and organisation generally - is simply not worth knowing. Craig keeps us honest on our structures and ensures we tick the right boxes at the right time. A footballing star in his younger days, he is now kept fit by being married to the delightful Natalia and by having two young gentlemen who, we think it would be fair to say, enjoy life to the full.
Deacon: Matthew Lombard
Our amazing musician! Matthew, his wife and three of their beautiful children come from South Africa. Matthew has doctorate in music and can fluently play various instruments like the saxophone, clarinet, piano and many others. So we are very grateful we can use his skills around church events. His amazing wife Nicole looks after and home schools three children. She is very skilled at cooking and keeping our tummies very happy during church lunches and other events! Both Matthew and Nicole are a great help to us as a church being involved in many areas of Christian service.
