Meet The GBIYM Team

Adrian Hall is an avid photographer and musician, dedicated to see this apostolic generation take their place in the kingdom of God. Given a worthy cause, he can cycle great distances to meet the goal without fail! In his free time, talks over a cup of coffee is certainly the way to go. 

Carla Closa is a wife and a mum of 2. Born in the Philippines, she came to the UK with her family when she was 14. She is currently serving in the Music and SMT Department in her local church. She strives to encourage the young people to get involved in church work and to do so with willingness and commitment. She’s passionate about different cultures and loves getting to know them through their food and music.

Sam is an avid foodie, trying different cuisines is her idea of adventure. Though, she would not say no to travelling the world. Originally from the Philippines, she moved to the UK when she was eight. She now calls Exeter, a quaint city in Devon home. Currently serving as the youth leader in her local church, she is excited to see revival amongst the young people, all across the British Isles and beyond. 

Patrick is from the United States but has lived in the UK since he was 10. His passion for campus ministry was spawned from being a student and wishing he had some help in navigating what to do. He and his wife, Jodie, have the opportunity to ensure that students get that help now!

Mary-Catherine with her husband James and 2 girls, Cayla and Alexa, pastor the work at New Life Church in Glasgow Scotland.

She enjoys a well made cup of coffee or tea and listening to various styles of music.
