BUNDOORA PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

STAFF TEAM

All Christians are called to minister [serve] one another in love with the gifts and resources the Lord has entrusted to them [1 Corinthians 12-13, Galatians 5:13, 1 Peter 4:8-11].

 

At BPC we have the privilege of being able to set aside some of suitable character and gifts to do this full time by providing a living for them. All our ministry team are committed to making disciples of Jesus by proclaiming Christ and teaching, in varying contexts, believers to do all that our Lord has commanded and so enable the ministry of all.
