Steven & Patience's Story. |
|
Steven and Patience are the lead pastors of Darfield and Rolleston Life Churches. Originally from the highlands of Papua New Guinea, they have made New Zealand their home.
Steven arrived in May 2008, carrying prophetic words about releasing God's fire and presence beyond his homeland. After their wedding in 2011, Patience joined him in New Zealand. Together, they have two children, Charis and Joy.
As a pastor, Steven ministers under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, demonstrating God's power. He is passionate about the simplicity of the Gospel, the presence of the Holy Spirit, and helping believers mature into their identity as sons and daughters of God.
Steven and Patience share a deep passion for their relationship with Jesus, which is evident in their ministry and leadership.
Patience has a special love for worship, seeking to usher people into God's presence and facilitate encounters with Jesus. Her desire is for believers to prioritize and live out of God's presence, making it a reality rather than just a place to visit.
