Simon would describe himself as a classic extrovert who finds himself enthused and stimulated by being around others. He has a particular passion for seeing children and young people come to know Jesus, and finding fresh and innovative ways to communicate the gospel. He is a keen cook and songwriter, whose ambition sometimes overshadows his talent! Simon is married to Gill, who has been a primary school teacher and currently works with a charity providing pastoral and spiritual care in schools. They have three children, Christopher, who is married to Megan, Benjamin and Katy.​ TEL;TYPE=WORK,VOICE:01242 578163 TEL;TYPE=WORK,FAX: N:Rev Simon Heron ADR;TYPE=WORK:;;;;;; END:VCARD
