Our Team
David Devenish
Patron
Prior to leading Woodside church in Bedford David worked as a Civil Servant for the British Government in international trade negotiations, and then as an international banker. In the year 2000, he stopped overseeing church planting in the UK and started working in the Russian-Speaking world, laying foundations and training leaders. He also became increasingly involved in the part of the world known as the 10/40 Window. More recently David has led the Catalyst network, and having handed that over he now leads the Newfrontiers together team.
