Contributors

We have a great group of people who regularly contribute to our blog. You can find out a little more about them below.

James Hunting

Lead Elder

After moving to West London in 1996, James started to lay the foundations for church leadership by finding a fantastic wife in Lucy and developing a robust humour and steadfast smile. They have four children and one God.
Dan Smith

Elder

If a wordsmith means being skilled in the use of words, what is a Dan Smith? Dan is married to Anna and has been on staff at Crown Church since Jan 2011. Dan serves as an elder at Crown, and among other things, he leads our worship band and writes songs.
Ben Waite

Worship Band & Life Group Leader

Ben is a former student of Sport Science at Brunel and currently works as an outstanding teacher in Watford. He leads worship and a Life Group and serves on our Living Roots youth team.
Stefan Brown

Elder

The University Lecturer who is universally loved. If you've not been to Crown Church yet, it's worth it just to meet Stefan and his wife, Jackie. Maybe one day you too can enjoy their cooking, a fusion of South Africa and Jamaica, as you hear stories of DJ-ing in the 'old days'.
James Durrant

Students & 20s

James is more driven than a London bus, (and he will never leave you waiting in the rain). He leads our student ministry with incredible passion and vision and also works as a Technology Risk Consultant in central London.
Femi Anifalaje

Femi exercises his fine creative instincts as a free-lance musician, producer and photographer.
Prince Laryea

Both Prince and his wife Laura have a huge passion for and impact on the local youth culture. They have two kids.
Isabelle Howarth

Izzy is a supporter of the church and fulfills that in many roles such as networking with families, couples and single members of the congregation through prayer, socialising, encouraging words and practical means.
Tope Koleoso

Tope Koleoso is the lead pastor of Jubilee Church. In 1995 he moved to Enfield to help plant Jubilee. From 2004, Tope has led the team of elders. He is responsible for preaching and vision. Tope is also involved in planting and supporting other churches internationally.
Liz Brown

Originally from Upstate New York (think farmland more than pavement), Liz moved to Hillingdon in 2005 to work as a youth worker with an international school. Fast forward many years and stories later, she found herself a lovely English husband, Phil, and is now a stay at home mom of two. She enjoys writing about it all.
Ben Leaman

As our 'Support Manager', Ben has a big remit though he won't scream it. Overseeing the finances and administration of the church, Ben is also a key part of our strategic leadership. Married to Emma and with two daughters, he is a uniquely gifted and enjoyed man.
James Harland

Elder

James and Zoe were married when he was still capable of a ‘flock of seagulls’ hair style. James serves as an Elder at Crown and works as a Senior manager, leading process, quality and compliance teams. Zoe educates their four children and manages the busy home life and serves in the church Kids Work. They also lead a thriving Life Group together
Zach David

Zach and Lois David have been an integral part of Crown Church since 2005.
Michael McGowan

Michael and his wife Miriam hail from New Zealand but they can't get enough of the English weather. Michael & Miriam are RAF musicians, they have two young daughters and they lead one of our Life Groups.
Anna Smith

With roots in Hillingdon, Anna was part of a church plant in Oxford while studying at Oxford Brookes. She returned to Crown in 2006, got married to Dan, and currently works as an Occupational Therapist.

Abbie

Abbie is our Children's Support Worker, responsible for overseeing the 0-11's at Crown. She is married to Sam and they have been a part of Crown since early 2016. She is a big fan of tea, and has enough tea pots to open a small cafe.
