TEAM
We believe the Bible gives us a clear and very attractive picture of what leadership looks like in Christ’s Kingdom and in the church. We believe that godly leadership in the local church is a team focussed on and led by one man, Jesus Christ.
ELDERS
We believe that God raises up, and the church recognises elders/pastors, who govern and shepherd the church. The team of pastors carries responsibility before God for the doctrine, discipline, direction and devotion of the church.
DEACONS
In scripture we see that deacons are to be appointed in order to release the pastors to do their work; deacons are those who serve in a capacity of senior responsibility.
OUR TEAM
Certain individuals in the church are released to work full-time or part-time for the church in order to accomplish our goals of caring for the church well and reaching out with mercy.

TRUSTEES
The trustees are responsible for the legal management and administration of the church, ensuring that it is fulfilling its charitable purposes and subject to general law. The Trustees recognise the Spiritual Authority of the Rev elders in the church and seek to complement and submit to that authority, and that the elders in turn do their utmost to honour the role of the trustees in doing this.
