ROGER & TANYA
TEDDER

  • ABOUT

We have been married for 30 years and have 3 wonderful children who all serve on the leadership of Hillside Church. Stephen and Hannah were married in December 2022 and it has been a privilege to welcome Hannah as a daughter into our family. Paige is a teacher following in her mom’s footsteps. Tanya has been a teacher for around 28 years and currently teaches Grade 6 at St Mary’s while still being fully devoted and committed to Hillside Church. “ Teaching is a crucial element of my ministry, mission and the call of God on my life. “ Roger’s background was construction and he gave up his business to serve in full time ministry at Hillside Church. We have served on this pastors team for 24 years and have led the pastors team since July 2019. Hillside Church is our family. She has our heart.
