The team

Tim and Ellie

Tim and Ellie have lived in Maldon since mid 2020 following a time of serving abroad in Moldova. They both have a passion for people knowing Jesus and they often do this though their music ministry. Tim is the Director of a charity that works in Chelmsford Secondary Schools mentoring the young people and Ellie is a singer songwriter. They are excited to see all that God will do in and through The Hive Church community.

Tim and Hannah

Married for 9 years, parents for 2. Hannah is from Newcastle and works part time as a children’s community nurse, she loves a velvetiser and a chat. Tim, returning to his hometown, is a software developer, and is loving Hive football & tennis (when he gets the chance!) Moved down at the end of 2021 after living for 10 years in Liverpool. About to become a family of 4 - we’re excited for the journey God is taking us on as we put down new roots in a great little town.

tracy

Hello my name is Tracy Wild. Although raised in the North East I have lived in the Maldon area for 30 years. I work as a Chief Executive for a Christian Charity that houses and rehabilitates offenders across England. I am also a director of both the Hive Church and the network of churches called Skylark International.I have a real passion to see lives turned round and changed and people who perhaps have been rejected by society go on to live positive lives within the community.I love to see the Church being relevant to the communities it serves and outworking God’s love in a way people can see He cares for them and wants to see them fulfilled lives, feeling loved and accepted, giving them hope and belonging. Since becoming a Christian I haven’t looked back and feel God’s love has changed the way I think and express my love to others.

Sally

Hi, I’m Sally. I live in Heybridge and I love walking along the canal to Heybridge Basin and enjoying the views, as well as the tea shops! I work in education and have taught primary, further education and adults. My real interest is early years education and that’s where I’m fortunate to work now.>>>>>> One of the things I get excited about is when someone realises that they are of great value in God’s eyes and that He loves them beyond all imagining - and despite any mistakes in the past and any mess in the present. The security, joy, hope and purpose that knowing this brings has made a real difference in my life and the Hive Church is a great place to come and find out more about this and hear other people’s stories too
