Janet Ayres
Church Leader
I’ve been part of the church family at Redeemer King for almost 10 years now. I initially served in the worship team, and since early 2019, I’ve also been involved with the leadership team. In October 2024, I stepped into a church leader role, providing leadership oversight. A churchgoer most of my life, I said “yes” to Jesus just as I turned 18 having been invited along to a youth service to hear about the God who calls us by name – “Today, if you hear my voice…” (Psalm 95:7).
I also work full-time with The Message Trust, serving as part of a small team working across the Yorkshire & Humberside region. The work I do reminds me every day of God’s heart for the last, the least, and the lost.
I’m genuinely excited about our future as a church as we learn what it means to be living stones (1 Peter 2), being part of a vibrant, growing house of God, built on the unshakeable cornerstone that is Jesus. I love our passion for discipleship and our desire to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the community, wherever that may be.
I am married to Brian and have two boys (who won’t stop eating or growing), as well as a hyperactive labrador.
