God loves young people. It’s personal.
That’s why we believe it’s important to keep relationship at the heart of everything we do.
It’s our core value and underpins our vision as we seek to build:
-
- Our relationships with young people
- The young people’s relationships with each other
- Strong relationships in the life of our local community
- Their relationships with their Father, God

Abby
Youth Worker
Abby has been a part of Millmead since 2016 when she moved to Guildford to complete her 3 year placement for her Theology & Youth Ministry degree at St Mellitus College, London. Before that, she grew up in Crawley and studied Education Studies at the University of Winchester. After finishing studying, she stayed on as our Youth Worker.
In her spare time she likes to be with her family and friends, watching films she’s seen millions of times, and you can always make her happy with a Wagamama!
