ABOUT THE LEADERS

(AKA Pastor Wez)
James Wesley (Wez) - Senior Pastor
Hi, this is me. Pastor Wez, also known as Uncle Wez. I will admit, it was never my dream to be a Pastor. I avoided it. But here I am. You just cannot outrun God. I believe in honesty, trust, and faithfulness.
I am a tradesman (Vehicle Body Builder) and I studied Ministry in a previous life. Then went on to do a Business Degree and currently into my Masters JD. Along with being a Pastor I work full time in a secular job. I would love to meet you all sometime.

Angela is a wife, mum and grandmother, and loves church! A Hills local, she has called EastGate home since 2001 and loves to meet new people and find out what makes them ‘tick’.
