St Mary's Radcliffe on Trent

Working in love to glorify God
and proclaim Jesus Christ as Saviour

Graeme Anderson - Vicar

I was born in Camberwell, London where I spent the first eleven years of my life. I then moved to Frome in Somerset where I lived until 28. During this time I became convinced about Jesus Christ and decided to become one of His followers.

I also gained a degree in computing and entered a career in this field. As time progressed I got married to my wonderful wife, Judy. I also became a troubleshooting manager and ended up starting my own small company.

Around the age of 38 I started to become aware that God may well be calling me to become a vicar. After discussing this with others over a period of time we all felt this was God’s will for me and I was ordained in 2002.

I served as a Curate in Bristol and then an Associate Vicar in Chelmsford. The responsibilities I have had during the years before and after ordination have been many and varied. My work for Jesus has tended to have a strong strategic, evangelistic and collaborative tone to it.

It is such a privilege to be involved in serving the creator of the universe who has such a fantastic concern for us. We really matter to God, and being involved in people’s connection with God is amazing. I have seen many, many people transformed by the power of God. What a way of living, to be part of that!
