James Wood 1931 – 2020
James Wood, who died on 11 March at the age of 88, had a wide and significant pastoral ministry over many years.
Born in Bolton in 1931, he was saved as a boy and sensed God’s call to ministry in his teens. He served for a while at Capernwray Hall with Major Ian Thomas, and intended to train for the Anglican ministry at Tyndale Hall in Bristol following national service (1950–52).
