The Synod is pleased to report that Mrs Caroline Pathak, a Lay Preacher in Yorkshire Synod and also Mission Enabler at Longcauseway Church in Dewsbury, is volunteering as a Police Chaplain in West Yorkshire. Caroline says “It’s a great privilege to come alongside those who tirelessly work for public safety.”
Read here a little about Caroline’s journey…..
Caroline Pathak began her career as a teacher in India for a significant period and took up the role of a warden in a boarding school. She moved to the UK in 2006 and pursued her theological studies.
She worked both in mainstream and special needs schools, care sector and pastoral work in London. In 2016, she moved to Bradford taking on a pastoral role. Her passion to support the community was a clear call from the beginning following her mother’s example. Her work reflects her strong Christian faith.
Whilst working as Mission Enabler at Longcauseway Church, Dewsbury, Caroline began her journey as a Volunteer Police Chaplain in August 2023. She loves to serve the community she works with, making connections with organisations and individuals.
