CELEBRATION OF LIFE WILL BE

New Wine Church
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 Friend
It was around three years ago I met Tim at a Youth function for N.T.C.G.
There he was with his camera talking shots, not doctored in anyway, but just spontaneous, when you thought not, there you were doing something and Tim had the picture which caught the moment.
Well it's offically recorded down here the moment you captured that special place in our hearts.
Even though I knew you for a short period of time, you were one of my friends. Thank you Tim.
I'll see you somewhere, sometime, somehow, but not yet !
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
1st John 3.2
A timely reminder that we must live each day as though it is our last for one day it will be. I did not know Tim personally but, like many others, I admired his obvious dedication and commitment to the work of the Lord which he demonstrated by his faithful service at conventions - nothing was ever too much trouble. Truly he had a servant's heart. Gone but not forgotten. May his family be comforted in knowing that they will see him if they follow as he followed.
Gone to see the King
We offer our deepest sympathy to the Bryan family and sister Angela.
Tim, your journey is over and you have reached your destination. Well done you finished at the top of your game. You used your gifting to the glory of God and touched so many lives. I am grateful to you especially for the in-put in my son Andrew's life especially when he was a young boy in your Sunday School class and later on in his teenage years. You were the master of ceremony at my wedding and you were so funny. You were a blessing and now you are forever blessed. The Lord knows why he called you when he did. A Rose is missing from Herne Hill's garden because the Lord picked it.
Love Sister Grace, Brother Winston & Brother Andrew
Indeed a true man of God
Why are the mighty falling...?
I know you are in God's safe hands and resting in perfect peace.
My condolence to sis Angela and your family and the Bryan family. God will sustain you and be a present help in times like this and the joy of the Lord will be your strength.

Your jokey character and intergrity live on....
I'm still reeling from the shock of knowing New T no longer has one of its TRUE jokers !! Well known as a minister, youth worker and deep individual i also remember the guy that had me crying with tears of laughter with his constant ribbibing and non stop childish pranks which kept a smile on many many faces. A TRUE gentleman who exemplified integrity and honor but who also 'kept it real' and relatable which is why the young people always enjoyed his company and teachings. From your humble begining in Greenwich to your rise to Executive level in the New T church body you have always been 'TIM', no airs, graces or pretences and thats a rare quality these days. You will be sorely missed bro but i look forward to cracking more jokes with you when we meet again.....Bye for now!!
Ange and family, my thoughts, prayers and support is with you always. If theres anything i can do to assist in this time don;t hesistate to ask. God bless, stay strong x
A Champion has come home
Your memories still lingers on. Your spot will be left vacant.
To Mrs Bryan and the rest of family keep courage as the scripture says in Romans 8:35, who shall separate us from the Love of Christ............ God bless.
Encouragement
My deepest sympathy to the Bryan family.
I did not know Tim personally but that does not matter, he was a brother a Christ
Remember, time is a healer, therefore, I join with others in prayer, believing that all the support and love that is needed more than ever, is comforting you right now. We will celebrate his life with you.
Gift from God
Tim you were a gift from God, blessed with many talents with so much to still to offer. Your sudden departure left us with no opportunity to say farewell. The word of God gives us hope, even at this very sad time, that this is not the end, we will meet again. (1st Thessalonians 4:13-18) Our deepest condolences to your wife Angela, Rev & Mrs Pearson Bryan, other family members and friends.
Memores are treasures
Memories are treasures
Time cannot take away,
So may you be surrounded
By happy ones today.
May all the love and tenderness
Of golden years well spent,
Come back today to fill your heart
With beauty and content.
And may you walk down memory lane
And meet the one you love,
For while you cannot see him,
He’ll be watching from above.
So for his sake be happy
And show him that his love,
Has proven strong and big enough,
To reach down from above.
My deepest Condolences to Tim's wife Angela, Pastor and Sister Bryan, Patsy and Patrick and other family members. God is going to take care of you all. In times like these continue to trust God because God knows best.
Tribute
A true reflection of Tims life can be seen in 2 Samuel 3:38
'...Know ye not that there is a Prince and a Great Man fallen this day...' Tim we miss you! but our lost is Heaven's gain. (Who will stop the traffic for us?) Condolences to Angela,
Bishop Pearson & Sister Carmen along with the Bryan's Family
