Leadership Team

Pastor Stuart gives the spiritual lead and direction to the church and in the near future we hope to appoint some Elders and an Assistant Pastor to work with him.

The team of deacons look after the practical affairs of the church and offer valuable spiritual support to Pastor Stuart
