What does Ted do?
Ted’s ministry focuses on worship leadership (including weddings and funerals), pastoral care (visiting and counselling), and the typical day-to-day operations of our big and busy church. Ted keeps Trinity focussed on who we are and why we’re here. He makes sure we keep a sense of humour while staying faithful to our story!
Ted on Trinity:
“Trinity has somehow achieved that rare balance between the closeness of a rural family church, and the wide reach and diversity of a larger urban church. I love how we care for each other, care for the world– and particularly that we appreciate the many ways in which those things can happen: through service, through music, through art, good humour, and study.”
