Testimonials

“This was a great opportunity to have such a well known and popular speaker. It was a hugely positive lecture, and many people took the opportunity to speak to John Bell personally at the end of the question time.”
St Andrew’s & St George’s West Church, Edinburgh

“Professor Southgate brought a most thought-provoking, educational and reflective perspective on the subject. He was a pleasure to work with and complemented our whole series of lectures on science and faith beautifully.”

“Jolyon Mitchell encouraged participation from the outset and clearly enjoyed the responses from the audience. We received many positive comments after the lecture.”
Lincoln Theological Society

“It felt like a gift to a small church to have a speaker of such renown as John Bell and not to have to worry about finances. We would not have been able to do this without the help of the Trust and are truly grateful. Hosting the event also gave us something exciting to look forward to and gave encouragement to the life of our church. Thank you!”
West Derbyshire United Reformed Church, Wirksworth

“We are most grateful to the Montgomery Trust for enabling this to happen. It was for us a very successful event, and everybody went away with their thinking broadened and deepened. Thank you.”

“Once again thank you so much to the Trust and to Andrew for giving us a wonderful evening and for enabling us to pursue our idea of the annual lecture.”
University of Derby Buxton Chaplaincy / Churches together in Derbyshire

“Thank you. It made a big difference to be able to book someone like John Bell for our conference. Costs of venues and speakers make it increasingly difficult for us, as school budgets are much tighter and we cannot put up the charge for an event like this to the extent that it prevents heads of small schools (many of our schools are small, rural schools) from attending.”
Diocese of Chichester

“Thank you so much for enabling this event to happen - we would not have been able to put on such an exciting and inspiring talk without your support.”
Just Love, Durham

“The service you offer is very valuable. I have used two of your speakers now, and both provided the kind of thing I was looking for. I put on lectures at this school for a variety of purposes and one of the hardest things is choosing good speakers. The Montgomery Trust has done a lot of the hard work for me. I am grateful.”
Aldenham School

“This was a very well received and important event for us and we appreciate the support of the trust.”

“Thank you for enabling us to bring Professor Jolyon Mitchell from Edinburgh to West Yorkshire. Without your organisation’s financial support, the costs would have been prohibitive to us.”
The Mirfield Centre

“Professor Jolyon Mitchell was an absolute delight to work with throughout the planning of the event and he delivered a stunning lecture on the evening.”
St Mary’s, Swaffham Prior

“Delighted to discover you are giving this help, as societies like ours find it hard to afford speakers from outwith Scotland.”
Scottish Church Theology Society

“We are very grateful to you for supplying such a wide range of exciting lecturers.”
Rutland Theological Society

“Thank you so much for what you do and for enabling us to hear from internationally appraised speakers. It is so exciting for us to listen to and be inspired by those that we look up to and who have the wisdom and experience to pass on. To be able to do this as a small, just starting out, group without any income is just such a blessing. So thank you so much and God bless you.”
