Charlie Blundell

I am married to Kate and we have two young children. I am a scientist working in the pharmaceutical sector, inventing and adapting technologies to support the discovery of new medicines. My focus in church is evangelism and the growth of new believers.

Jay Chastney

Julian Gittings

I have been part of Salford Elim church since 2015 where I worship along with my wife Clare.

Most of my working life has been centred around Christian books. I have been a bookseller for 20 years and the last 10 years or so I have worked for various Christian publishers as a sales manager. I am very passionate about Christian books and supporting Christian Bookshops.

We run a home group at our home and I am a regular speaker at our Sunday services. I am also part of the Prayer and Pastoral teams at Church.

I love to bake and have done several charity fund fundraising baking events, alongside baking my other interests are books (obviously!) and walking.

Judith Thompson

I have been part of Elim church, with my husband Colin, since August 2016 and have loved being involved ever since. Amongst other things I am part of the Prayer Team and Pastoral Team. I also help to run Play and Stay, our adult and toddler group. I used to work as a Primary School Teacher, mostly in the Early Years department. I now do some counselling part-time and was able to start our Church and Community Counselling Service three years ago. Outside of church I love to spend time with family and friends. I am keen to serve wherever I can and I'm excited to see what God has in store for our church and community in the coming years.

Daniela Sans

Most people will know me as the tea and coffee lady and I love seeing the community a simple brew and a biscuit can create. I am also part of the Pastoral Team, looking after four wonderful ladies.

Steve Hollick

I joined Salford Elim in October 2012, along with my wife Claire and our two sons, Daniel and Jamie. I spend Monday to Friday working in the professional audio industry. Within Salford Elim, I am part of the preaching team and also a member of the technical team on Sunday mornings.
