Our Ministers
More details of the two ministers in the circuit

Nick Moxon is the minister for Portishead (High Street), Redcliffe Bay and Pill churches. He is currrently acting Superintendent of the Circuit, and also has temporary pastoral oversight of Christchurch. He has been a Methodist minister for 20 years and his previous appointment was as Evangelism Enabler for the Lancashire district for 9 years.
When he has time, Nick likes to keep fit. He has taken part in a number of triathlons from short races to one that took him six and a half hours! “I love being out on my bike, swimming up and down the pool or running around the marina here in Portishead. I do most of my sermon preparation when doing exercise.”
Nick has a passion to see people discover who God has created them to be and to live out their faith in their daily lives. “Sometimes that takes folk away from doing ‘church jobs’ but it’s more important that followers of Jesus live out their faith wherever they are and whoever they are with.” Nick feels that his role is to equip his congregation to be ‘whole-life disciples’.
Sally Ratcliffe joined the Circuit in September 2024 as minister of Nailsea, Backwell and Yatton Methodist churches.
She also temporarily has oversight of Kenn Road Methodist Church.
