About Rev. Robin Spittle


Photograph of Robin & Jenny SpittleSuffolk has been the focus of my life from my birth in Halesworth, secondary education in Ipswich, Curacy in Chantry and a lifelong allegiance to Ipswich Town Football Club. Kesgrave will be the fourth Church I have been the Minister of, the others being St. Clare's of Ipswich, St. Mary's of Shotley and St. Peters of Copdock with Washbrook. Each has shown me that Suffolk people are a wonderful mixture of faith and doubt, joyfulness and sadness, success and failure.

My wife, Jenny, and I have been married for nearly six years. Jenny has three children, two who live with us (Jon, 22 and Lucy, 16) and one (Andrew, 20) who lives in Ipswich. I have two children (Danielle, 15 and Sian, 11) who stay with us most weekends. My main interest outside my vocation is sport (mostly watching nowadays) and both Jenny and I are never happier than when we are at a live event together.

I am keen to take the Christian gospel to where people are - to quench the spiritual thirst of pub-goers.

I would love to know your thoughts and questions on faith, Church and life itself; please email me, thank you.
