The Pastoral Structure In The Coign Church
The fellowship and meetings of our Neighbourhood Groups are an essential part of our strategy for pastoral care. They are our first line of basic care through “one-anothering” and for leading and pastoring members into radical discipleship and lifestyle evangelism. To oversee our Neighbourhood Groups we have allocated the total membership into four broadly geographic Pastorates, each overseen by a Pastorate Leader, assisted by his wife, Cluster Leaders and Neighbourhood Group Leaders.
These four couples are:

Dean & Ros Guy
West Woking Pastorate
Dean and Ros have been members of the Coign Church since 1997. They consider it great being part of a dynamic and diverse community of people. They have 3 sons, Ben 22, Zac 20 and Nathan 14. Ros works as a ward auxillary in a Veterinary Hospital and Dean for a local Architectural Practice.
Anything to do with Music or Sport ticks Dean’s box and Ros loves working with animals, particularly training dogs as guide or assistance dogs. |
