Lynne Paterson has been appointed as the new head of the Evangelical Alliance (EA) Scotland. She joins after serving with Tearfund for 15 years, as the Head of Tearfund Scotland for ten, and the Head of Prayer for five.
Paterson has lived in several UK cities and now lives in Glasgow, where she attends Hope Church. She has a wealth of experience from various roles in different churches. Asked what she is most looking forward to about the role, Paterson told the EA website:
‘Doing a lot of listening; to the staff team, to members, to leaders across the nation, to the broader church, and most importantly, to the voice of God. Then to take all that listening and learning and work as a team to see how we think God is leading us to invest our time and energy in the coming years.’
