Northlakes Leadership Team

This team of people have been chosen because of their varying backgrounds, talents, compassion, humility and the fact that they love God and love People.  This team does many things to make sure Northlakes is a special community.  They teach, lead youth, oversee finances, lead worship, advise and support the ministry team, but most important is that they are here for others when they most need them.  We are so honoured to be supported but this awesome leadership team!

 

Leadership Team Members: Brett Dousha, Peter Reay, Ruth Conradie, Janice Tabas and Joel Botor

Rob & Lynne Branham

MINISTRY ROLE:

Rob: Pastor and Team leader, but what I do mostly is connect with people, support and guide them. I also work as a Chaplain at a local Primary School, so Chaplaincy has taught just how important it is to be present with others in whatever they may be going through. 
Lynne: Serve and Support! It is so important to serve the community we lead. Setting up on Sunday, filling the gaps when I am needed and mentoring others is a real passion of mine.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN ON THE MINISTRY TEAM:
