CELEBRATION OF LIFE WILL BE

Gateway House, John Wilson Street,
Woolwich, London, SE18 6QQ
************************
Rev Timothy Anthony Bryan was a great man who embodied zeal and commitment to his calling as a
minister in the New Testament Church of God. We grieve for a great husband, best friend and soul
mate to his beloved wife of 15 years Angela who never restricted Tim's calling as he dutifully
lived his charge as an anointed servant of God using his gifts and abilities to uplift, challenge
and inspire us to be the best we could be. We continue to pray for her strength in this difficult
time.

Tim worked for Christian Aid as a design and production manager. He previously managed a small
design studio responsible for producing a wide range of health promotion materials and campaigns
across the boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham.

He dabbled in photography as he liked to put it and would spend numerous hours at police stations as
an appropriate adult for youth in problems with the law.

Fluent in gadgetry. Didn’t do tea runs! Involved in a wide range of community and church based
projects including youth work. He played the sax and pretended to play the keyboard, bass guitar and
drums.

Tim was a member of the Herne Hill NTCG, National NTCG Youth Executive member and consultant to many
projects within the New Testament Church of God at the senior level. The legacy he leaves behind is
a rich one, Tim transformed the lives of many people far and wide with the word of God and his
infectious humour that could turn any situation around. Words would fail us immeasurably for
accolades and awards could never truly honour the contribution made by this individual. He gave his
life to God and God used him mightily and we are all the beneficiaries of a life lived 24/7/365 for
God.

On the morning of Tuesday 22nd July 2008, Tim Bryan rose early as he prepared for another day. The
orders he received that day came from on high, Tim was promoted to higher office and the world lost
a great man. His cause of death has not yet been ascertained and we ask respectfully for any
speculation to cease in honour of his wife, family and those that loved him.

Before he died Tim produced a book documenting his love of photography, details will be published
soon and we ask for your support in memoriam.

If you wish to upload a tribute photo of yourself and Tim please contact me through this site.

A son of the faith

Rarely does God raise up a man who embodies all of the fruit of the Spirit. Tim's ministry touched me, a man of wisdom, knowledgde, love and kindness. When a life has accomplished so much in such a short time one has to ask is it really finished? As a colleague and worker in the kingdom i salute you. As a friend, i will miss you.

A Salute to a Gospel General

Tim, was one of the nice guys of life. Someone who could make you feel at ease in his presence with his great sense of humour and someone who was very easy to get on with. The why question has also entered our minds but we're not in charge...God is. Tim, I salute you as a fellow young minister. You have made us proud and proved that we really do have some excellent young, faithful and committed Ministers in NTCG. We will miss you down here but one day.....!!!!

Angela and all the Bryan family be encouraged. You are an important part of Tim's life and contributed to Tim being the person that we all loved. Thank you and stay blessed.

Angela, Tim was a true gentlemen to the ministry and his life a true testament of his dedication and commitment to God. Whilst working with him in the Men's Department it was evident that he was a gifted and anointed man of God. He was a positive influence in Joel's life and our family will truly miss him. Be assured and comforted that our prayers are with you.

A rev and a friend. True man of God, R.I.P Tim

Tim was not only my rev but a friend, he was the one who baptised me! A willing and very busy man for the Lord, it is a terrible loss, but God was ready for him. Much love to sis Angela, all the congregation of the West Croydon District, those fortunate to have met Tim. I'm glad to have known Tim.

Truly One of A Kind

Tim, thank you for your spiritual guidance, your preaching and teaching, your wit and brilliant sense of humour – you truly were one of a kind and irreplaceable. Your talents and gifts were limitless, even the way you could effortlessly switch from playing the bass, to the drums, to the saxophone, and even turned your hands to the keyboards, not to mention the numerous initiatives and activities you produced and conducted for the church - we miss you so much!

You have been an example and an inspiration to me and everyone at Herne Hill Church. We are so privileged to have benefited from all you gave out to us over the years – what an honour and a blessing! My life is enriched for having known you and your legacy will continue to live on…..there is no doubt about that! My heartfelt sympathy and condolences go out to dear Angela and the rest of the Bryan family. Rest in peace my brother. x

Jean McFarlane (Friend) July 28, 2008

In times like this we tends to want to know why would God take someone so important in our life so soon from us, and leave those who seems to do not have a care in the world. But when we really sit and think about it we sometime come to the conculsion that God knows what is best for us.

No one can really say they know what you are going through because we really don't know. This is a journey that must run it's course and with the help of the Lord you will come through.

Love always and you will be our prays and thoughts
Our deepest condolences to Daddy & Mommy Bryan and our sisters and brothers from:
Your bajan relatives Levare ,Janelle, Javere, Serena and Alexis
