AIPM as seen by British churches.
By: Chuck McCombThe Northern Baptist Association helped AIPM record testimonials from two British church secretaries and two American couples. Links to Youtube videos of these interviews are listed below. These videos are intended to help answer questions UK churches may have about this volunteer ministry.
We are grateful to Angela Pino, Church Secretary of Westoe Road Baptist Church in South Shields, UK and to Dennis and Brenda Greer for their interviews. Dennis served as interim pastor of WRBC from June 2011 to January 2012. We also appreciate Chris Carey, Church Secretary of Cambridge Road Baptist Church in Middlesbrough, UK, and Darrell and Faith Grice for their testimonies. Darrell and Faith served at Cambridge Road from March to July 2011.
Our friends in British churches who would like more information about American interim pastors, please watch the videos below. To view the entire set of interviews, click on the photo below. This set of interviews tries to address the issues that British churches might have about having American couples serve in their churches. There is a pause between each interview so stay tuned as the system brings up the interviews in sequence. If, during the interview, the video stops briefly, you might pause it to allow more of it to download.
For our American friends—on this web site under “Recent Posts” there is a set of interviews that try to address the concerns that candidates for American interim pastor might have.

We owe a great debt of gratitude to John Singleton, one of the regional ministers of the Northern Baptist Association, for conducting the interviews. And, we are most grateful to Ian Britton of FreeFoto.com for filming, editing and formatting the interviews.
