Rev: Kath Willis
Safeguarding officer
Malcolm and I were married in 2000 and together ran a Christian inner city pub called The Cock and Bottle in Bradford.
On moving to Morecambe in 2006 we joined Father's House having been made aware of the church years before and feeling that this was where God wanted us to be. I then entered Elim Bible College and was ordained as a minister in June of 2011 and I have served at Father's House since that date.
I have always felt that I was called to minister at what I call the "coal face" and therefore worked for 10 Years for The Olive Branch, a Christian charity in Lancaster as a Project Manager, where I had regular opportunities to show the love of Jesus both in word and action. I retired from that paid work in 2019.
