Editing Vernon Corea (section)

==Church Work==
Vernon Corea was a Christian, he was very involved in the work of the church in the UK – he was a [[Lay Reader]] of the [[Church of England]] at [[Emmanuel Church, Wimbledon]] in South-West London and previous to that appointment he was Lay Reader at [[Christ Church, Gipsy Hill]] in South-East London.

Recalling his life, Reginald Massey noted in ''[[The Guardian]]'': ''Corea was a born broadcaster and racy raconteur, prone to making outrageous remarks with a straight face. But behind his frivolous manner was a generous and large-hearted Christian, who was also a [[lay reader]] at Emmanuel church in Wimbledon village, in south-west London.''
