Senior Pastor
Kingston Vineyard Church
Kingston Vineyard Church is now recruiting for new Senior Pastors to take over from Peter and Noni Farrelly as they take a sabbatical and then focus on the development of Growbaby International.

Contact: [email protected] or phone on 07900 212567 for further information.
Deadline: The timing is open for discussion but whoever takes over needs to be in place by February 2021.
