Moving Forward to the Next Chapter in Ministry at Oamaru

It seems like yesterday, but two years have passed doing pastoral ministry with Oamaru Baptist Church while based in Timaru.

A few years before I got involved with OBC, their membership and support had gradually decreased until the remaining few faithful couldn’t support employing a pastor.
