For some time now, we have been praying with our East Location for the leaders God would raise up to succeed Simon and Jenny as Location Pastors, enabling them to focus fully on the Senior Pastor role.

We are thrilled to announce that Keegan Harris is stepping into the role of Associate Location Pastor at East. This is a significant moment for our church and a wonderful answer to prayer.

Simon and Jenny will remain as Location Pastors, while Keegan serves alongside them over the next 1–2 years. This intentional season of shared leadership will create space to discern God's direction both for Keegan and for East.

"Kia ora e te whānau,
I'm Keegan, and I am super stoked to be taking on this role at East! I have been around The Street Night, for the last five years. I've loved it and the many opportunities I've had, including being a part of the Night Leadership team as local lead for prayer.
Growing up in Christchurch, I moved to Wellington to study Educational Psychology, finishing that and most recently working in disability support. In my spare time you can find me watching sport, playing a board game, or cruising Wellington's cafes.
I'm eager to get started and get to know everyone better, and see how I can get stuck in and serve East and the wider Street whānau!
Grace and peace"
