🕊️ ⛪️ Meet our new minister ⛪️ 🕊️
The Revd Teddy Siwila is delighted to be the new Minister for Wolstanton Methodist Church, joining the village after nine happy years of ministry in Wolverhampton.
Originally from Zambia, Teddy comes with a heart for people, a love for Jesus, and a desire to journey alongside churches and communities as together they discover what God is doing in right here in Wolstanton.
Teddy believes ministry is best done together. He enjoys getting to know people, listening to their stories, sharing faith in everyday life, and encouraging churches to grow in hope, love, and service. He’s looking forward to becoming part of the rich life of not just the church but the Wolstanton community - as well learning the local ways, which includes enjoying a good oatcake!
Away from church life, Teddy is a devoted sports fan. Football, cricket, and rugby will always catch his attention, so if there’s a match on, there’s a good chance he’ll know the score.
Teddy is married to Muulo, and together they have three wonderful sons: Lukundo, Wila, and Salifyanji.
As a family, they are excited to put down roots in Newcastle and look forward to sharing life, laughter, faith, and plenty of cups of tea!
