Linda Stevens came to the Glens and Kirriemuir Old
Parish Church in 2004 as a probationary minister. On completing her ministry
training she was ordained in January 2006 into the post of team minister for
the West Angus Area Ministry (WAAM), based in the Glens and Kirriemuir Old
Parish Church.
To this post Linda brings a varied background from her
work in teams as a senior technical officer in the insurance industry, to
her involvement in various voluntary organisations over the years. Prior to
ministry training she spent 14 years bringing up her three children and
caring for her parents.
Linda’s post as team minister builds on the foundation
and ethos of team ministry that has been created in West Angus over the past
few years. This role is twofold. She works alongside Malcolm in the
ministry work of the Glens and Kirriemuir Old Parish Church. She also works
in the three parishes of WAAM in various capacities but principally in the
building of relationships with young families.
Linda is keen to improve her ministry skills and to
this end she is currently studying for a Post-Graduate Diploma in
Counselling. In her spare time she spends time with her family and enjoys
going to the theatre and cinema and reading as many books as possible.
