OUR LEADERSHIP

OUR SENIOR LEADERS

Gabriel and Rebecca Chan serve our church whānau as the senior leaders, since October 2021. They have 4 children and love family life here in Otepoti Dunedin.  

Gabriel was Associate Minister at Elim Church Kensington Temple in London, Principal of the International Bible Institute of London and a TV presenter on TBNUK, then Associate Minister at Elim International Church in Wellington. He holds a Masters in Biblical Studies from King's College, London. He has an international perspective having lived 11 years in Hong Kong and 15 in London, amongst a community with 100+ nationalities before being called to NZ in 2019.

Rebecca is a passionate evangelist and loves leading people into an encounter with Jesus. Professionally, she is a chartered accountant and project manager. As a whānau, they seek to connect with people from all backgrounds, celebrating their cultural diversity, and engaging meaningfully with those of other faiths and none.

They are both ordained ministers with the Elim Pentecostal Churches of New Zealand.
