Our Leadership

The LifeLinks Family of Churches is a relational group of churches and ministries that encourages the unique calling and individual expression of the churches and ministries we serve. We celebrate the diversity of the church while holding fast to the core fundamental elements of the Christian faith.

As a basis of Leadership, LifeLinks has what we describe as the “Apostolic Team” to provide the umbrella of spiritual oversight needed in our Family.

The members of the Apostolic team are:
