Malcolm Laver, General Secretary of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) between 1988 and 1998, has died aged 87. He was a husband, father and grandfather.

Born in 1936, he served as FIEC’s Assistant General Secretary in 1979, before serving as General Secretary from 1988 until his retirement ten years later. During retirement, he helped form the FIEC Pastor’s Association, which he served as Secretary until 2002.

Retired FIEC Pastoral Ministries Director Richard Underwood wrote on the FIEC website: ‘Malcolm’s memory brings a smile to my face. The thought that his earthly race is over and he has been caught up in the embrace of the Saviour he loved brings joy to my heart.’
