MEET THE crew

Below is just a small part of our leadership team, shared here so that you can connect with them and know more about who we are. We believe that every member is a pastor and the real heroes are the volunteers who give their time, talent, and energy to passionately serving others.

Rev Kesh Rico Govan (Lead Pastor)

Kesh serves as Lead Pastor of the Church and is responsible for the day to day operations and leading the senior leadership team.  He is a natural storyteller with the keen ability to help people understand the Bible in ways that apply to everyday life. When you hear him speak, expect to laugh and occasionally cry. And when you least expect it, something he’s saying will sneak up on you and you’ll suddenly realise, “That was for me!”  Under Kesh’s leadership, All Saints is dedicated to introducing people to Jesus and helping them follow Him. Kesh is married to Catherine, they live in Nelson Bay and have four children, Josh, Amelia, Beth and Madeline and a playful Shih Tzu dog named Snoop!
