LEADERSHIP
Mary

President
Our faith and community is embodied above all in our president, a longstanding member, regular attender and trustee who is the minister’s and board of trustees’ consultation point with the congregation in-between formal meetings and impromptu discussions. Mary is originally from Jamaica and lives in Camberwell. She is employed in domestic services at Lewisham Hospital and enjoys doing her bit to brighten the days of others, a wide circle of friends, social engagements, fashion, and Brixton market.
