Mark Sharman

Mark and his wife Sandy are both originally from London and became Christians while at university where they met one another at a Bible Study in Central London. After university Mark spent time training for ministry at Trinity College, Bristol and Sandy trained to be a science teacher in London.

They have been in pastoral work since 1976; their first church being Childs Hill, where they married in 1977. In 1983 God guided them to the North East of England, which continues to be their home. Over the years they have formed many strong friendships and links with other churches and fellowships in Tyneside and have seen God maintain unity amongst Christian leaders.

Mark and Sandy have three children and six grandchildren that they enjoy seeing regularly. Although both are now retired, Mark still loves preaching, evangelism, riding his electric bike, walking in the Lake District and reading history books. Sandy enjoys playing the piano, walking with the dog, teaching, technical challenges, and leading worship.
