How you can help Our Vision People we support HIV/AIDS How far does your money go?

The AMEN Team

    

The AMEN team is made up of the people who financially support the charity, the people who are supported, and the volunteers who enable the charity to operate. 

    

Without the contributions of all of these people we would not be able to serve God and further the Gospel in the way that we do. 

   

This page shows the Trustees and other helpers who you may come across in various ways when communicating with AMEN. On the right are the six Trustees, from left to right - Janet White, Sandra lemming, Malou Bolton - Chris Lemming, Chris Chatfield, and Gareth Bolton.

   

Gareth and Malou

    

Gareth and Malou Bolton

Founders of AMEN. Gareth and Malou also work for Operation Mobilisation. Apart from the details on the Welcome Page of this Web Site you can find out more about them and their work by going to www.garethandmalou.org Gareth and Malou’s home base is in Dartford where they are members of Dartford Christian Fellowship

 

 

Chris Chatfield

Chris lives in Worthing and is MD of his own company operating a fleet of 40 buses and coaches. Chris has always had an interest in world mission and believes that God has called him to be involved in various overseas projects. He has been involved in various mission projects with his church and has visited many countries over the years. 

  

He first met Gareth in 1997 when Gareth was the speaker on an Oak Hall holiday. Subsequently he visited India with him and was thrilled to see the projects which AMEN was supporting in that land. He has now visited India several times.

 

Janet White

Janet is the Honorary Secretary of AMEN. She has lived in the Dartford area
all her life and her friendship with Gareth goes back as far as their youth
group days! Janet works part-time as the librarian in a local primary
school. Along with her husband, Keith, and their two teenage sons, she plays
an active part in Dartford Christian Fellowship. In her spare time she reads, knits and does cross stitch embroidery - but not all at the same
time!

Yvonne Millington

Yvonne helps Janet with a number of the administrative activities. She lives near Dartford and is a member of Dartford Christian Fellowship. Her background is in banking, first in with Barclays bank and then with a merchant bank in London. In recent years Yvonne has worked as an administrator helping a number of different local Christian organisations. Yvonne first met Gareth in 1981 when she joined the church where Gareth attended and they have been friends ever since. Until recently Yvonne was treasurer of AMEN - although she has stepped down from that role she is pleased to help in other ways - and we are pleased that she does! 

Roger Cotterell

Roger provides back up by looking after the accounting. He and his wife, Ann, live in Worthing. They have two sons.

  

Roger worked for a major UK bank for 33 years, the last 16 of which were in Head Office in London. He took early retirement in 2000, and now divides his time between part time accounting with Chris Chatfield’s Compass Travel; and the Treasurer’s role at both River of Life Church, Worthing, and Link Romania, a Christian run charity providing aid and supporting projects in Romania.

  

He is a lover of music, principally jazz, and also enjoys country walking.

Chris and Sandra Lemming

Friends of Gareth and Malou live in a small village in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Both have  retired from jobs in education to serve God. Chris has built and maintained Gareth and Malou’s web site for several years and has created the AMEN web site which you are now visiting. They have three grown up children and three very lively grandchildren. 

   

As well as being involved in AMEN they are chaplains to a large shopping centre in York and moderators of a Baptist Church in Hull.
