Andy Paterson

Andy spent 24 years pastoring Kensington Baptist Church; a large inner-city church in an ethnically diverse area of Bristol. He was previously President of FIEC from 2001 to 2004 and also served as Chairman of the PfS Board until 2005.

From 2011 to 2022 he served as FIEC's Mission Director, helping support many FIEC church plants and encouraging our churches to keep evangelism at the forefront of their vision.

Now, Andy serves on the pastoral team at Charlotte Chapel in Edinburgh.

Andy is married to Kath and has two grown-up children. He’s a life-long Spurs supporter, a frustrated drummer and bassist, loves reading history and crime novels (there’s not much difference to him!) and walking around hills, vales and industrial heartlands.
