Men’s Ministry Nevin Beukes coordinates the men’s ministry which revolves around a monthly get together over coffee.
Missions Stewart Rowe leads the Missions Ministry team. Jesus has not given us a small task. Nor has He given us an impossible one. While we may be labelled the “mission team”, this is the name more accurately used to describe the whole church. We are a group of people in a catalyst role within COV who are moved by God’s heart for all nations.
Pastoral Care Tasa Havea leads the Pastoral Care Ministry. There is the need for everyone in the church to feel that they are spiritually and emotionally supported. We see pastoral care as a church wide ministry in which everyone has a responsibility to contribute.
Playgroup Coordinated by Rachel Hockly, Playgroup on Vogel has been operating as a free service to the community since 1991 with some funding being received from the Ministry of Education. It runs out of a purpose built facility at the rear of the church with a large grass field and playgrounds.
Prayer Nevin Beukes oversees the prayer ministry. As Psalm 127:1 affirms, “unless the Lord builds the house we labour in vain.” We believe that seeking God for His guidance and direction must be at the very heart of all that we do. We have a number of corporate prayer opportunities which are held at the church.
Property Ron Taylor takes on the responsibility of looking after all property maintenance.
Sunday Worship Malcolm Little is responsible for the overall running of the Sunday Morning Worship Services. A big part of this is leading and coordinating the music team. We believe that Sunday mornings should cater for all age groups so that all people in our church family feel valued. Tony Martin oversees the technology, sound system and the computer desk.
Women’s Ministry Denise Dignam facilitates the women’s ministry running events for women of all ages. There are also a number of special interest women’s groups that are attached to this ministry.
Youth Nathan Chard oversees the youth ministry with the support of a committed team of young adults. Youth includes those of intermediate and high school age however older high school students tend to join in with the young adults.
