George comes from London originally and spent his early years in the RAF. After leaving the forces he lived on the south coast of England, in the Hants and Dorset area. He became an International Rally driver with some reasonable success and became the RAF's No.1 Rally driver. He later went on to start his own business in car engine tuning.
As a boy his mother sent him to Sunday school and in his earlier years, when he was just a lad of 11 years of age he was chosen to be a quior boy in the Church of England, based at St. John's Church (in Stratford Broadway, East London). He continued singing in a Church in Australia at 13, when his parents emigrated.
So from an early age George began to feel the call of God on his life and yet by late teens he was off into the world.
God started to draw George more obviously much later in life and after his conversion he then studied at Moorlands Bible College in Dorset for three years and received a Bible College Diploma.
Further studies were continued for a further five years at The Reformed Baptist Seminary at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, under Dr Peter Masters.
George later served as a Youth Pastor and then briefly as an Evangelistic Co-ordinator in a Milton Keynes Church.
After that time George became a Church planter and was successful in planting a Baptist Church in Milton Keynes in 1992 and was subsequently post ordained to full time Ministry as a Pastor in 1994, although the church was disbanded much later in 2001.
He became an Accredited Minister with the Fellowship of Independant Evangelical Churches (F.I.E.C.) and therefore a full member of the Pastor's Association in 1994.
George has been a Pastoral Counsellor, using Psychodynamic/Nouthetic methods for around 20 years and has widened his experience counselling skills and he has now been trained for four years at Post Graduate level as a Counsellor and Psychotherapist, currently studying for a Masters degree, in the Integrative Psychotherapy field.
George has started to build up his new Practice TALK THERAPY and is taking on new clients. He is under normal supervision, fully insured and building his practice at three separate offices, offering new clients access to the service in Harley Street, London. England.UK
George felt a call to his roots of the Anglo Catholic and wider church which is in the Celtic stream of Christianity.
George has since been Ordained again, only this time in Apostolic succession, as an Episcopal (Anglican) in April 2004. These orders have great validity and proceed through many valid lines, which also include the Petrine line of succession. George has since been Consecrated as a Bishop.
George's Vision, is for a very unique Christian Cell Community called Agape Community International. George also moves in the gift of healing and has a tangible healing anointing in his hands. God uses him in Healing and Deliverance ministry.
