A little bit about Alastair Simmons

I’ve been worshipping in Seagate, along with my wife Jean, since 2016. Before coming to Seagate I was Pastor at Riverside Evangelical Church, Ayr for 20 years previously having been a secondary schoolteacher of Physical Education and Religious Education in Hamilton for 25 years.

I genuinely feel really blessed, after some health issues over past 5 years, to still be able to serve God and His Church. A double bonus is still being physically able to pursue two of my great loves of cycling and and preaching – sometimes even at the same time.

We have a son Ross whose wife is Christine and two granddaughters Grace and Elizabeth.
