Sam Ashton

Minister

Sam is married to Alice, and they have four little children. The family love walking in all weather, building dens, dancing in the kitchen, and adventuring with Jesus. Sam and Alice both trained at Oak Hill Theological College, just down the road in Southgate. After a curacy in central London, Sam and Alice moved to Wheaton, IL. They left England with three bags and returned four years later with three children, a Ph.D. in biblical and theological studies, and many more bags.
