Pastor Chris has a desire to lead our congregation in fulfilling the mission that Christ gave us, "...Go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you." (Matthew 28:19-20.)
