Our Staff
Angus McKee
Senior Pastor
Angus is married to Sue and they have three adult children, Lauren who is married to Larry, Daniel who is married to Gabby and James, as well as three grandchildren. They also have one cat, who rules the house.
Angus came to faith in Christ towards the end of his first year at Wits University. He obtained a BSc in chemistry and then worked in the metallurgical industry for a short period.
After obtaining his BTh Angus spent 10 years in Kwazulu Natal serving as the pastor of Port Edward Baptist Church and Mooi River Baptist Church. He then moved to East London and pastored the Beacon Baptist church for 15 years.
In 2018 he accepted the call to pastor the Muldersdrift Union Church. In his spare time Angus enjoys hiking and reading (especially history).
Tolamo Mallane
Associate Pastor
Tolamo is married to Matshepo, and they have a son, Alebakwe. He became an associate pastor at Muldersdrift Union Church in September 2025.
Tolamo came to faith in the later years of primary school, and at his conversion the Lord planted in his heart a desire for ministry that has continued to grow.
He served for several years at Central Baptist Church in Pretoria, where his love for the Lord, His people, and the teaching of His Word deepened, before later accepting a call to Muldersdrift Union Church.
Johannes Mahlangu
Caretaker
Johannes has been involved with the garden, building maintenance and security of the Church for nearly a decade. He is normally the first face you see when entering the property in the early morning, and the last at night when he locks up after the day’s activities.

Francois Venter
Francois is married to Sharon, and they have two children, Francois and Daniella. Francois came to know the Lord as a young adult at Emmanuel Baptist Church and is eternally grateful for the Lord’s saving grace and ongoing mercy in his life.
Francois works in the finance industry and does his best to keep “the lights on in our country” but is more excited about seeing people exposed to “the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God” (2 Cor 4:4). Francois has a special passion for the young adults and children of the church and is delighted to serve as the leader of the Sunday School ministry at MUC. He also, along with his wife, Sharon, and children, serve in the music ministry.
Francois enjoys cycling and can often be seen with Sharon riding their tandem.
Rob McGill
Rob is married to Sharman, and they have a son Scott, and a daughter Sarah. Rob and his family have been part of the MUC family since 2009, where through its sound doctrine, expository preaching, and love of its people, have grown as individuals and as the body of believers at MUC in love and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Rob has served as a deacon, and now as an elder, and is involved in the music ministry as a worship leader, in the kids’ ministry as a Sunday School teacher and youth group leader, and in leading a weekly men’s bible study group.
Rob is involved in the mining industry through a small consulting business and has been living in the area since 1999. He believes that through local churches like MUC, God is working in our community in a real and tangible way to the immediate, and everlasting benefit of many.
