Pastors Craig and Karen were called to be Pastors three years ago of what was Maungatapere Community Church, now Inspire Church Whangārei. They have been part of the church family and wider community for over 21 years, raising their two daughters here, making it a place deeply close to their hearts.

They are passionate about people, community, and seeing lives transformed through the power of Jesus. Their heart is to create a church where everyone feels they belong, a place filled with faith, where the Holy Spirit is moving, and where healing, freedom, and miracles take place.

They are excited about all that God is doing and feel honoured to be part of it, believing for a church that continues to rise up, meet the needs of the community, and help people encounter Jesus and find a place to call home.
