Our Elders
OUR HISTORY
Rosedale is the result of a church plant around 55 years ago in the North Invercargill suburb of Hargest, with it's beginnings from a children's bible study.
You will now find us on the courner of Bourke and Exmouth Streets.
​
Our heritage is of Open Brethren roots and we are connected into the CCCNZ (Christian Community Churches New Zealand) church network.​

FLETCHER
Having joined the elders group in 2019, my wife Diane and I are involved in the life of Rosedale Bible Chapel. We also volunteer with Christian Books Melanesia (Papua New Guinea).
As a trustee of Christian Community Churches of New Zealand our Brethren heritage churches have a wonderful opportunity to grow and learn alongside one another.
Having four children and 7 grandchildren they also keep us busy.
My giftedness is in serving, governance, assisting, hospitality and encouragement.
