She enjoys the welcoming nature of the Veritas community and the openness surrounding biblical questions, struggles and practical day to day dilemmas. She considers it a privilege to serve the community in several capacities. Kendall enjoys reading, woodworking and being in nature with the family dog, Juniper.

Adam Feather

Adam stumbled upon Veritas in a happy accident when he was looking into N.T Wright’s influence in the local area. He enjoys the church’s heart for others and is appreciative to be able to partake in its mission.

He enjoys discussions surrounding the practical matters of living a life in Christ while immersed in today’s culture; the more thought provoking, the better.
