Brian Luse-Pastor
Brian grew up on the West Coast of the United States, in Oregon, graduating from the University of Oregon with a degree in Political Science. His first pastorate was to the primary children of Rolling Hills Community Church while attending seminary at Multnomah. He and his wife Shauna have been married for 19 years and have 6 children. They have been living in Scotland for two and a half years while serving at RBC for just over two of those.

Iain Kennedy – Associate Pastor
Iain is better known in the church as Kenco and is married to Lyndsay who is a doctor training for GP. They were married in July 2009 and immediately began to attend RBC. After completing his theological studies (ICC and Cornhill Training Institute) he became our full-time Associate Pastor at RBC in July 2011. Most of his time is spent leading our children and youth areas, but also takes on some of the preaching and pastoral responsibilities of the church.

Elder – Keith Liddle
Keith is husband to Helen and Dad to Rebecca, Nathan, Naomi and Matthew. He has been at the church now 16 years and recently was appointed an elder in 2010. As well as taking on a guiding role in teaching and spiritual health of the church with the other elders and pastors, Keith takes on the accounting and a lot of the technical side of things. His most recent task has been to put together an App (ask your grand-kids if you’re not sure) for the church sermons.
Elder – Douglas Young
Douglas has been a member of the church since he was a teenager. Now in his sixties, and recently retired along with his wife Laura he devotes a lot of his time to leading the men’s ministry (see the tab on the home page) in the church. He and Laura love to relax together in the countryside, and although less peaks are being faced, he and Laura will often be found enjoying the scenery and fresh air along mountain paths.
Elder – Eric Young
Eric, cousin of Douglas (above), can be found on the cradle register that we keep as a church under the year 1941. Over the years Eric has served in the church faithfully in many areas. Eric and his wife Irene do many of the unseen tasks in the church with great humility. Eric now devotes much of his time to the pastoral care of our church members who are elderly or are ill. He and Irene are keen ‘ramblers’ and are often looking for others who may wish to join them on (the fairer) Saturday mornings.
