"In March 1996, we were given the opportunity to pastor this amazing church. One of the biggest lessons 2020 has taught us is not to take the good things in life for granted. One of those good things in my life is fellowshipping with our church family. Connie and I are thankful and honoured to serve with such a dedicated and passionate leadership team and congregation, and we're excited to see what God has in store for the future."
