Martin Armstrong

Picture
Senior Pastor
Martin is married to Helen and they have three adult children:  Rebekah, Jessica and Timothy.  Martin was a career secondary school teacher      before going into full-time pastoral ministry in 2000.  He has ministered in Tauranga for 13 years and Azerbaijan for 3 years.  He is excited about the next chapter in Taupo.  Martin is an adventurer with a love for travel, exploration and sport .  He and his family have also lived in Niue Island and in Brunei on the Island of Borneo.

Martin has observed the  tangible difference the Christian faith makes in  an individuals life, a family, a community and a city.  He sees the church as an extended family that helps and equips each other and reaches out to others with the love of Jesus Christ.
