Tim Derksen [Finance]

God has richly blessed me with the opportunity to serve Him at Central Heights Church. I count it a great privilege to be a part of the team that God has brought together. As God has blessed me, I seek to be a blessing to the church and each person that forms the church through my work.

A key verse that has given me direction over many years is Genesis 12:2-3: "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."

My responsibilities include all the day to day financial aspects of the church, maintaining the computer and networking system, and helping develop and maintain this website.

I grew up working in the family Christian bookstore, and a large part of my education came from that. I developed a love for reading, and still read constantly. I also developed an aptitude for numbers, and that has led me to my present work.

I am excited about what God is doing in and through Central Heights, but more importantly I am excited about the way God is moving in Abbotsford through His church. Having just finished serving for the last three years on the Missions Council, I know there is a big world out there that needs God. But Abbotsford needs God just as much, and our mission field is at our doorstep.
