OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM

null

The New Testament recognises leadership in the local church as being carried out by Elders (pastors) and Deacons (servants). We are looking to model Melbourne Lights Church according to the Bible.

Our lead couple, along with the other elders and deacons work together as a team to lead and shepherd the church.
