Neil Trollip was baptised in Port Elizabeth (Eastern Cape) in 1997 and has been leading the church in that city on a voluntary basis for 12 years, with his wife Noeleen. The couple has been married for 37 years and have three children. Neil worked as the R&D manager of a large research organisation until his retirement from his secular job in December last year. A keen scholar of the Bible, Neil was one of the first graduates of the Ministry Training Academy (MTA) in South Africa in 2017. He is currently pursuing a master's degree at the Rocky Mountain School of Ministry and Theology (RMSMT). "I'm now genuinely in the full-time ministry and enjoying it immensely. I'm also excited to study further and deepen my Bible knowledge to be better equipped to teach," he shared.

From zero ... to five
Let's meet the first teachers in South Africa, who were appointed in Johannesburg last weekend. Neil Trollip, Werner Reyneke, Solly Kganyago, Paul Smith and Raj Chandra were tasked with the responsibility of teaching God's Word to his people.
Their appointment was met with great excitement by their families and the church in Joburg, and all five are fired up about their new roles.
Here's a closer look at who they are.
Congratulations to all five brothers. We look forward to learning from you!
