Jacques Venter (BUC Associate Executive Secretary)

We were saddened to learn of the death of Pastor Jerrold Volney Ham-Ying on 12 October 2021. Pastor Volney, as he was known, was born on 3 June 1955 in Port of Spain, Trinidad. On 1 January 1980 he married Karen Del-Marie.

Pastor Volney entered denominational employment within the British Union Conference in January 1980 as an Intern Pastor in what was then the North British Conference. In 1984 they moved to the South England Conference and in 1985 he began a four-year study leave.

He returned to the South England Conference in 1989 where he worked until May 2002.

Sadly, Pastor Volney, suddenly and unexpectedly passed away on 12 October 2021, leaving behind his wife and children.

We now look forward to Christ's soon return and that glorious resurrection day.
