John Prickett

Local Lay Pastor

My name is John Prickett. I was born in Leytonstone, East London. I left school at 15 and moved to Leicester to start an apprenticeship as an electrician for the NCB.

After my conversion, I joined Glenfield M.C. I later worked there as a Youth Club Leader. Through Church I met my wife. I had 5 hard long years studying to be a Local Preacher, in 1982 I passed.

Due to the closures of the mine in 1983 I moved to Nuneaton. I now have 3 daughters and 4 grandchildren. I think of myself as a family man.

I am a member of Bedworth M.C. When I was offered the position as Local Lay Pastor, I felt God calling me to accept. As a family man I feel the strength of family support. As a Christian I strongly believe in the importance of God's family. It is my duty to help my family to grow and develop. So it is with God's family. I hope to help them grow and develop spiritual with God's help we may achieve this goal.
