SERVANT LEADERS
cession|community is under the spiritual oversight of our Servant Leaders, who operate as our elders:
Greg Buckley, Brett Jones & Jewel Turinsky.
Brett is the founding pastor of cession|community and just won’t leave! Brett is passionate about seeing people reach their God-given potential. He revels in the creativity that is a part of who cession|community is becoming. He longs to connect people to their Creator. Brett grew up in Howick and continues to live here with wife Kristen and their 4 children. He once emptied a bucket of water on his head to make a point. He forgot he was wearing an expensive microphone at the time… Contact Brett here. Brett’s Sabbath day is Friday.
