CHURCH LEADERSHIP
We Aim to be Servant Leaders
Our pastors serve the people of Grace Church through preaching, teaching, counselling, leading and prayer.

Upon graduating the Sovereign Grace Pastors College in 2012, Matt joined the pastoral team at Grace Church full-time. Matt and Lizzie have two sons and a daughter.
