George Osborn - Elder, Lead Pastor

George Osborn helped to plant Hope Church along with an amazing team in 2021. He moved to Liverpool with his wife Kate in 2019 to join the Cornerstone Collective after spending time studying with the Crosslands Seminary. They have six children, four ahead in heaven. Shortly after arriving baby Henry made his appearance during the Covid pandemic with Amelie following shortly after. George has been in full time Christian work since 2008 mainly working as an evangelist and elder of a local church. George became a Christian after a chequered past and so is passionate about the gospel and the freedom found in Christ. Also passionate about bio’s like this being real and not a list of accomplishments only, I am full of weakness, not unfamiliar to failure, grateful I don’t have to be the hero but know the One who is.

"Testifying to the gospel of God’s grace!" - George

Matt Hallas - Elder, Music Team Lead

Matt joined the eldership team in 2024 and has testified to how much he has grown and flourished while planting Hope Church. Matt has worked in professional music settings most of his life and heads up the music at Hope Church with a team of volunteers from the church.
