Dave & Andrea Pavey – Children's Pastors
Dave, is married to Andrea, and is father of the lovely Nicole and Daniel. Although he has lived in Northern Ireland since 1991, Dave still shows his 'Englishness' when it comes to sport, which has been rather unfortunate at times! Dave oversee's all the ministries involved with children from birth through to 11 and specifically heads up ALLSTARS our programme for 6-11 year olds.
He works part-time for the church which enables him to help schools with their S.U.'s, and also to spend time developing the ever growing and amazing Children's Team that we have serving our children. Meanwhile, his fantastic wife co-leads Little Stars, our 0-2's programme. As a church we understand how hugely important kids are in the Kingdom of God and this is reflected by the amount of resources and effort that are put into this ministry.
