Youth & Children's Worker
Emily joined St. Peter’s in 2017, after spending 2 years as a Ministry Trainee in Exeter, where prior to that she studied French and German at university. When not at work, you’ll likely to find her doing laps of Richmond Park on her bike, baking a delicious treat in her kitchen or enjoying a coffee in a nearby cafe.

Becca
Taylor
Ministry Trainee
Becca joined St Peter’s in May 2019 and joined the staff team in September 2021. She completed Cornhill F1 in 2021 and is continuing with F2 alongside church work. Prior to her role here she was a journalist for various outlets and studied at Swansea University, where much of her family is from. Her Welsh heritage is particularly obvious during the Six Nations. Becca loves running and baking (the latter needing the former), her two cats Bill and Ted, but dislikes packing and cleaning.

Luke
Waldock
Ministry Trainee
Luke was raised by an English mother and Aussie father ably assisted by two brothers, in beautiful Cambridge. As the middle child, his pride is regularly tamed by healthy competition in all things and has a bountiful collection of bronze medals except when visiting the opticians. Raised on a lean diet of shallow Australian culture, he has always stuck out for backing Australia in cricket and rugby and for following Jesus. After school he went to Exeter University for four years to enjoy all things outside engineering. In 2021 Luke escaped UK restrictions to the antipodes to work for CRU West camps for 7 months in sunny Perth. He enjoys cycling, oval shaped balls and sharing food but dislikes cold weather and tidying his room.

Church Culture Committee
Sarah Godden, Joash Kwek & Elizabeth Mackenroth
The aim of the Church Culture Committee is to help St Peter’s be a safe and healthy church for everyone and a gospel-centred community for the heart of Fulham and beyond. We do this by reviewing the current culture, listening to feedback and considering ways to improve how we operate as a church. We’d love to hear from you if you have any feedback or thoughts on making St Peter’s Fulham a safe and healthy church glorifying God and looking after all who attend our church.
Email the committee.
