About the Pastor
Pastor Jaime Kriger hails from Erechim, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. He attended university at Unespar and spent 18 years working in tv and radio before God called him to the ministry.
In 2004, he relocated to England with his family and began attending Westfield House of Theological Studies in Cambridge and the University of London, graduating from both in 2008. He served his first congregation as Associate Pastor at Christ Church, Petts Wood, London. He then took a call to Resurrection, Cambridge in 2015. In 2026, Resurrection twinned with Ascension and Pastor Jaime now shepherds the churches in Cambridge, Brandon, and Ipswich.
