Luke smith
Church relations developer


Luke is based at St Michael Le Belfrey in York and has come from a sales and marketing background. He has taken a leap of faith by giving up a well paid job in order to join the fusion adventure. We are delighted to have him on board and hope that with his involvement many more churches will be able to play their part in student mission through praying, giving, sending and receiving.
