REV ELSON PARRIS

Rev Elson Parris is District Superintendent of the Wesleyan Holiness church in the UK with responsibility for the whole of the British Isles. He is also senior pastor at the Wesleyan Christian Centre, Harrow Green and Chaplain for the YMCA George Williams college.

Elson is keen on preaching and teaching that moves away from the over-intellectualisation  of the Word of God towards connecting the truth of Christ to hearts, heads and hands. His ministry aims to reach out to our postmodern society on every level – emotionally, intellectually, culturally, socially and spiritually.

Elson and his beautiful wife Doreen hail from the sunny isle of Barbados. Together they have four children and five grandchildren, with whom they share their love for God – and cricket.
