The Leadership Team of PRBC would like to welcome you to our Church family website. We hope you find everything you need on this website so that we can look forward to welcoming you to one of our services or events in the future.
Pastor Derek Gibson
Derek joined the Park Road family as Pastor in July 2021. After graduating from London Bible College with a BA in Theology in 1999, Derek went on to pastor churches in Kent, the West of Scotland and Essex. Derek is married to Carol, and they have two grown up children. When not behind the pulpit Derek can sometimes be found jogging round Ferry Meadows with his dog (Pippin) and occasionally likes to test himself on ultra-running events.
Steve West - Church Secretary
Steve has been a member at Park Road for over 20 years. He is married to Miriam and has a daughter and a teenage son. Following a period of illness, Steve loves to walk in the countryside surrounding Peterborough to regain strength and stamina. His favourite food is Italian! A verse that has meant a lot to Steve over the years is from Exodus 33:v14, God spoke to Moses and said, 'My presence will go with you and I will give you rest.'
Andrew Macdonald - Treasurer
Andrew is our Church Treasurer and helps out with our Children and Youth Work.
James Hickinbotham
James has been a member at Park Rd for many years. He is involved with our AV Team and Music Group.
Marblet Collins
Marblet was born in Jamaica and after moving to England worked as a health care assistant, retiring in 2012. Marblet has one son, three grandchildren and one great grandchild and has been a member at Park Rd for two years. Marblet and her husband Matthew are part of our Welcome Team.
Julie Lambert
Julie has been worshipping at PRBC since 2021. She is a retired teacher and since retirement she has been leading the Welcome Wednesday Community Hub at the church. Julie says she draws assurance and comfort from Psalm 46, v1 "God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble".
Ruth Stocks
Ruth has been a member of Park Rd for many years, and has been involved in children's work for much of that time. She enjoys reading, doing jigsaw puzzles, listening to music and card making. Ruth's favourite bible verse is Philippians 3:14, "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus".
Michael Page
Michael is a fully accredited Baptist minister, but retired some years ago from paid ministry, working as a chaplain at the local prison. He still occasionally leads services or preaches at local churches but devotes much of his time to helping with Christian work in Peterborough and elsewhere. He is active with our Welcome Wednesday hub work, helps with the audio-visual team, is a trustee of a couple of Christian charities and sometimes does the school run for one or more of his grandchildren.
