Our People

They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common.
— Acts 2:42-47

We have an increasing number of pastors who have completed colloquy and are already serving our people in various ways. We are thankful for their commitment, especially the retired pastors who continue to serve tirelessly for the sake of the gospel. You can see our current College of Pastors member below.
