Pastor PaulCOXOriginally of Bath.
A deeply dedicated minister, he served the Lord faithfully across England. His ministry began at the age of 22, when he served as deacon and secretary at Ceylon Baptist Church in Eastbourne, before working at All Souls, Langham Place in London and training at Spurgeon's College. He went on to lead two churches: Lowmoor Evangelical Church in Cumbria, and Southbourne Free Church in West Sussex. Alongside his pastorates, he maintained a widespread visiting ministry throughout his life. Known for his great love, kindness, and pastoral care, he preached the gospel with absolute integrity and clarity, staying true to the core biblical message.
He was called home on 10th August 2026, aged 65. Tremendously missed by his wife Veronica, family, friends and the Christian community.
