The YBA Team - staff and trustees - has been so grateful for the prayerful support of our member churches, ministers and leaders during recent weeks as we sought a new Regional Minister Team Leader to join us. Following our interview day on Friday, 23rd October, we are pleased to be able to let you know that an appointment has been made!
Revd Andrew Ginn (pictured), current minister of Cemetery Road Baptist Church in Sheffield has been called to serve and he has joyfully accepted.
Andrew will commence his role in the YBA in the new year.
Andrew writes:
“After four years serving as Lead Minister at Cemetery Road Baptist Church in Sheffield, I am excited to be stepping into the YBA Regional Ministry Team Leader (RMTL) role from late February 2027. I’m looking forward to going further and deeper into the life of the YBA, working alongside the gifted and talented team of staff and trustees, and our wonderful Yorkshire Baptist family!
Together, we will continue to build on our relationships with key partners, including BigLife, St Hild and the wider Baptist family, as we seek to serve Baptist churches, ministers, planters, pioneers and chaplains across Yorkshire. I’m excited to lead the YBA in building on all that has gone before, strengthening what is already happening, and exploring new and collaborative ways of working together as we make disciples and multiply healthy churches across Yorkshire!”
Please join us in praying for Andrew and the fellowship of Cemetery Road BC as he concludes his ministry with them. And continue to lift the whole YBA team, staff, and trustees, in your prayers during the coming weeks in this time of transition. Thank you!
In His service
