Since the outset of our journey, we have sought to cultivate a biblical leadership culture that facilitates the life of God and the care of His people.
We have two expressions of leadership in Freedomhouse: The Life Team and the All Leaders.
We believe that healthy, Jesus-style leadership is a critical part of establishing a church that reflects Jesus’ heart.
Life Team
The Life Team provides spiritual and operational oversight of the church. It’s comprised of the elders and other key advisors and Ephesians 4:11 gifted people.
Elders:
Ryan and Melissa Matthews (team leaders), Nicholas and Tarryn Graham, Theo Moolman, Greg and Mariza Nixon.
Advisors:
Clifton and Emily Smithers, Sydney and Tracey Joelson, Alexander and Gill Venter, and Margi Reed.
All Leadership Team
This is a collective of leaders in all the functional areas of leadership and ministry in the church, with three distinct areas of responsibility: Connect, Operations and Ministry.
Connect – This includes all those who oversee and lead homegroups and discipleship groups.
Operations – This includes the finance team and those who oversee facilities and functional areas at Freedom House.
Ministry – This includes all the ministry leaders that serve the church.
