Stephen Worsley is our Senior Pastor. He was previously a concert musician and studied theology in his mid 20's at Laidlaw College (previously BCNZ).

Steve has a particular interest in developing training resources - his 'One Step Ahead Worship" and "One Step Ahead Preaching" resources have been well received and used in churches across the country.
