CRAIG REES
LEAD PASTOR
Pastor Craig Rees is the Lead Pastor of Central Wesleyan Church and the online church, Central Online. Before moving to Holland, Craig served as the Lead Pastor of South Tampa Fellowship, a multisite church in Tampa, Florida (2008-14). Common to both the Holland and Tampa churches is a passion for the Gospel and a commitment to missional generosity. Before moving to the USA, he served as Senior Pastor of the International Baptist Church of Hamburg, Germany (2001-2007). He has been extremely active in the mission field, speaking at international missions conferences as well as leading hundreds of people on weeks-long mission trips. Born in Bridgend, Wales, I hold a Diploma in Evangelism, Bachelor of Arts in Theology (with Honors) and a Master of Theology Degree from the London School of Theology, formerly London Bible College. I have been married to wife Wibke (vib´kä) for over two decades. We have six children: Allysa, Alec, Jonas, Jordan, Anmerose and Jayden.






Our leadership consists of our Senior Leadership Team, Elders, ministry staff, and volunteers. Paul says in Romans 12: "Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others." Each member of our church body is important, from our Lead Pastor to our willing and kind-hearted volunteers to the small children who praise Jesus each week here.
