Meet the team
At Emmanuel, we’re led by a team of elders and supported by staff and volunteers who serve in different areas of church life. Here’s a little introduction to the people you’ll most likely see up front, hear from on Sundays, or meet if you come along to a group or event.
We’re always happy to chat or answer any questions you may have—whether you’re exploring faith, visiting for the first time, or looking to get more involved.
Our Pastor
We’re currently praying for a new Pastor, and are excited about who the Lord has in store for us!
Our Elders
Our elders are responsible for the spiritual leadership and pastoral care of the church. They lead through teaching, prayer, shepherding, and helping us stay faithful to God’s Word.

Our deacons serve the church in practical ways—organising ministries, coordinating events, and helping things run smoothly behind the scenes.
We also have a small staff team who help with administration, communications, and supporting the ministries of the church.
Throughout the church, volunteers lead in a wide range of areas—children’s and youth work, hospitality, music, tech, outreach and more. We’re so thankful for everyone who serves.
If you’re new and wondering who to speak to about getting involved, just say hello on a Sunday or get in touch—we’d love to connect with you.
