Elders & Trustees
The elders have responsibility for the spiritual leadership of the church, discerning the vision that God has given us through prayer, conversation and listening to God together.
The trustees are a team of people from our church with varied and extensive experience. They support the leadership team with advice and counsel and have legal responsibilities for the assets and activities of St John's Church.
