Meet Our Minister

Born and raised in Northern Ireland, I was brought to a saving knowledge of Christ early in life at nearly six years old. I was taught the gospel by my parents on a regular basis and their labour bore fruit when I came to an understanding of my sinfulness before a holy God, and of the great work which Christ had accomplished for me when he died on the cross in my place, and by grace, I came to Christ.  There have been many times when my heart has been apathetic and colder to the things of God than it ought to have been, but I am thankful that by God’s grace, my eyes have continued to be fixed upon Christ. The Lord who saved me has also kept me.

Although I was not brought up in the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster, I came to appreciate a Christian body that took their Bible seriously, that sought to teach it, learn from it, and obey it.  Here was a people who were prepared to stand by their convictions.

It was in my second year of study at Queens University Belfast that the Lord convinced me of his call to enter full time Christian service.  I switched course from a Master’s degree in structural engineering to the shorter Bachelor’s degree and completing it, I began making preparation to enter Bible college. In 2011 I was accepted for training and in 2017 was ordained to the ministry in Port Lincoln.

During my second year in Bible college, I married my wife, Eppie, and the following year our daughter Abiah was born.  As a family we have come to South Australia feeling the challenge of the great commission that we are to go “into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”  We have settled into life far away from our previous home, but the needs are just the same. Sin’s effects are seen clearly in all our lives, families, and our society and the great need is the preaching of the gospel, in the power of the Holy Ghost, setting forth Jesus Christ, the Saviour from sin. It is only the message of Jesus Christ that can meet man’s greatest needs.

I invite you to come and meet with our congregation here in Port Lincoln to worship God, and I assure you that I will endeavour to faithfully teach the gospel, praying for the help of the Holy Spirit.
