Commenting on her appointment, Lynne said, “St Mark’s is a busy parish at the heart of the community, but mission – and our commission – takes us beyond parish boundaries to reach out to those in need across the world in the name of, and with the love of, Christ. I am delighted to be able to serve in this new role in the work of USPG.”
She continued: “I have always been attracted to USPG’s uniquely Anglican ethos and identity and the practical way in which it engages with local communities through local Anglican churches throughout the world” .
Linda Chambers, National Director of USPG in Ireland, welcomed Ms Gibson to the boards adding: “I look forward to working with Lynne as USPG continues to promote mission in the parishes of the Church of Ireland.”
