John Prothero

I am an experienced and deeply committed pastor with a long-standing calling to serve the Church through pastoral care, thoughtful leadership, and spiritual guidance. Over the years, I have had the privilege of ministering to diverse congregations, moderating churches, and walking alongside individuals and families through the many joys and challenges of life.

At the heart of my ministry is a calling to listen with empathy and respond with compassion. I am a naturally pastoral person—discreet, approachable, and emotionally attuned to the needs of others. Whether offering counselling, visiting the sick, or simply being present in times of crisis, I strive to embody Christ’s love through attentive, non-judgmental care.

I am also a confident and collaborative leader, believing strongly in leading through service. My experience as a church moderator has enabled me to support communities through periods of transition and conflict with sensitivity and integrity. I value theological and cultural diversity and seek to foster unity without uniformity—creating space for people to grow, question, and participate fully in the life of the Church.

Clear communication, emotional intelligence, and a deep sense of vocation underpin everything I do, from preaching and teaching to mentoring and encouragement. I am committed to nurturing faith, empowering others, and ensuring that all who come into the Church feel welcomed, heard, and valued.

Now seeking an opportunity to serve, I bring with me a resilient spirit, a compassionate heart, and a lifelong dedication to pastoral ministry rooted in faith, hope, and love.
