I am 26 years old and grew up in West Sussex about 15 minutes from Brighton. Went to Australia for 3 years where I travelled the East coast and did two years studying at C3 school of Ministry. Then went back to the UK and traded the bronzed tan and blonde locks for pasty white skin and a bad hair cut.
I started working for Barton Evangelical Church were the CHANGE youth group was launched. As youth from other churches joined so did the shape of the youth work. In 2010 CHANGE became a city wide youth ministry supported by 7 local churches . CHANGE is now a registered charity and is focused on being a positive influence in the city of Canterbury. www.changecanterbury.org.uk
I spent some time helping to develop a schools project which creates awareness of domestic abuse and promotes safe relationships. The project is called the “Love Shouldn’t Hurt Schools Project” and has been very successful by showing teenagers the early warning signs of an unhealthy relationship. check it out on www.lsh.me
I am currently a Pastor at Hillsong Church London for the 25+ community: VELOCITY.I actually get paid to do what I love the most.

‘Dear Dan,
I just wanted to let you (and the readership of your website) know about a campaign to get Delirious (writers of songs such as I could sing of your love forever and Majesty) to number 1 in the UK pop charts this Easter Sunday!
This is the perfect time of the year to make a positive impact through actions that are both cheap (Under £2 to download both versions of their single) and cheap (can be done in under 5 minutes).
They have released a song called History Makers (live and studio versions)which is currently number 10 in midweek position but we have until Sunday to get it higher, and get people talking about God, at Easter…rather than the usual pop tat!
Info here; http://www.invadetheairwaves.org.uk
Song can be bought here;
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/bestsellers/dmusic/ref=sv_dmusic_2
or here;
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewTop?id=130&popId=1&genreId=34
All versions of the song count towards the final chart position, the more buys, the higher it gets!
Thanks and God Bless,
Phil
