Meet the Minister
Our Senior Minister is Pastor Mathew Bartlett.
"I became a Christian in Sharon Church in 1991 and have worshipped there ever since. I served as Sunday School Leader, Elder and Assistant Pastor before becoming Senior Pastor in 2007. My ministry is chiefly that of expository Bible preaching and teaching, although I still take time to work as an evangelist and do some Christian schools work in the area. The greatest joy in my ministry is to see people come to know Christ as their personal Saviour and watching them grow to love and serve him.
I have lived all my life in Pontypool, and was a pupil at Trevethin Comprehensive School. After graduating from Cardiff University (Physics) I joined Torfaen County Borough Council before leaving my job to begin full time ministry in 1999."
Mathew is 38 years old and is married to Danielle. They have one daughter - Elen.
Sharon Full Gospel Church is a Pentecostal church serving Pontypool, Torfaen, Gwent. South Wales Valleys just minutes from Cwmbran and Newport.
