Presiding Bishop - REACH South Africa

Glenn Lyons

Glenn Lyons was born and grew up in Cape Town. His family background is a rich mix of both Scottish and Jewish heritage. Glenn came to Christ along with his fiance Sandy in 1993 while attending pre-marriage classes at St.James Church Kenilworth.
After completing his BTh (Hons) at George Whitefield College, Glenn became pastor of Emmanuel Church, Port Elizabeth. He served as Rector from 2000 to 2015 when he was elected as Presiding Bishop of REACH-SA.
Glenn was a pilot and paramedic but nowadays enjoys more relaxed activities like exploring old bookshops and taking long walks. He also enjoys the occasional hack through the local golf course. Glenn and Sandra have two children, Jesse and Joseph.
