Alison Marchant

Drawing on 9 years working in Israel and over half a lifetime of involvement there, Alison will also share some of what God is doing there today.

During her time in Israel Alison established three social projects and also worked on the team of Christ Church Jerusalem, and has over 40 years of involvement with what God is doing there. She draws on her experience of Jewish life and thought to explore some of the rarely plumbed depths of the Old Testament scriptures and traditions; enabling Christians to discover the insights, richness and enjoyment these can add to our faith and lives. She is a licensed Lay Reader in her local parish and was previously a Trustee of Penhurst Retreat Centre. She is also involved with other Christian projects seeking to bless the local community.
