Revd Bob Jones has been the Minister of the joint pastorate of Bilton Grange and Knaresborough United Reformed Churches since his induction on 12th January 2008.
His call to ordained ministry led him to leave the Royal Air Force, train at the United Reformed College in Cambridge and serve at his first pastorate in Wooler, Northumberland in 1994. Five years later he received a call to serve two churches, St Aidan’s URC in Hexham and another in Haltwhistle. He enjoyed his time in Northumberland but felt God has called him to a new adventure in North Yorkshire. Having been born in Yorkshire has returned ‘home’ and is ministering in a beautiful area.
He believes that the work he is called to is to take God’s word, alive and active, to the towns he is being called to serve. He commits himself to this challenge in Knaresborough and Bilton Grange and with our ecumenical partners.
