Who is James Nickols?
In a Nutshell:
Where it all began:
Oxford University and St Aldates Church:
It was at this time that the Toronto blessing impacted churches across the nation. James personally encountered the Lord in a mighty and powerful way which created a new intimacy and deepened the way that he prayed and studied the bible. Staying on in Oxford James worked as a lay assistant at St Aldates and went through the selection process for Church of England ordination.
A South African Adventure:
Before going to theological college James went to South Africa to set up youth work for a church in a small rural town in what is now Limpopo Province. 4 It was an exciting time in South Africa following the end of apartheid and James fell in love with the people and the country. Work was diverse, investing in young people, leading assemblies and teaching in local schools, putting on youth camps and helping to run an intern scheme at the church.
Cambridge, Plymouth, Peckham:
As the time came to move on from Plymouth, James married the love of his life Bethia, and together they journeyed to Peckham where they set up home together and planned their family. James had been invited to work as the Associate Minister at All Saints, Peckham, 6 with Frog and Amy Orr-Ewing.
A Developing Knowledge of Healing and Deliverance:
The Filling Station Trust:
A Sabbatical with Latin Link:
A Move to West Sussex:
James loves the ethos of The Filling Station, but more than that is the privilege of helping encourage and equip wonderful people to step in to all that the Lord is calling them to in their local area.
