Jane oversees the general operations and administration of New Life Church.

She is married to David Morgan (part of our eldership team) and together they run one of New Life Church’s ‘Small Groups’. They met and married in 2015, after the death of David’s first wife and Jane moved from the Isle of Wight to New Milton. They joined New Life Church in that year. Prior to this role Jane had worked ten years for Christian Endeavour Holidays Centres Ltd at ‘St Rhadagunds’, When the centre closed Jane worked for the YMCA, again on the island.

Jane’s heart is to help nurture a warm, welcoming and loving church, where the needs of the church family are met physically and spiritually (she does love to feed people!).
