THCC Leadership Team
Tower Hamlets Community Church is one church that meets in two different locations on a Sunday morning. We have a Main Leadership Team (MLT) and Staff Team who work across both sites, and Congregational Leadership Teams (CLT) responsible for the day to day leadership of each congregation.
Main Leadership Team
Our MLT is responsible for setting the overall direction of vision, values, partnerships and teaching. We expect our eldership to teach Biblical truth, model Christ-like behaviour, maintain doctrine, oversee financial matters and take a lead in praying for the sick.
Senior Pastor
Tony is half Bengali, half Scottish and 100% South London council estate. He’d like to have been a stand up comedian, but found a calling more suited to his gifts and became our pastor. He found faith as a teenager, was taught some sense of order by his German wife, and is passionate about growing inter-cultural church.
Tony Uddin
Elder – On sabbatical
Bex was almost born and was certainly bred in Tower Hamlets. She thought she’d escaped the East End when she went to Cambridge University, but God had better plans and brought her home. She’s been the CEO of a charity and a local Councillor. She is never happier than with her nose in a book, eating a grapefruit.
Bex White
Elder
Nikson has been heard to say that he was manufactured in Bangladesh, made in heaven. Fortunately for us, neither the weather nor British humour put him off moving to the UK around 20 years ago. He leads the Bengali Christian Fellowship, using his gift of gently but clearly sharing the good news of Jesus.
Nikson Robinson
Elder
James was born and bred in Tower Hamlets. He has been in the thick of THCC all his adult life. Even a stint as youth pastor didn't put him off, though it did confirm that he doesn't like camping and really, really doesn't like wasps. He has a masters in multimedia and a gift for relating to people from many different backgrounds.
James Blake
Elder
Simon grew up in the country. He spent much of his youth staring at nature, but eventually came to his senses and moved to Tower Hamlets. He denies rumours that he once knew Adam and Eve, but admits to being a little older than most in the church. Simon has a passion for details and keeps our finances in order.
Simon Kempson
Trainee Elder
Caroline can usually be found connecting people, sharing ideas and treating someone she’s just bumped into to a coffee. She is passionate about seeking the shalom of cities, and her work involves reimagining UK high streets with multi-functional spaces which she hopes will see more people come to know Jesus.
