The City has a particular kind of energy that I love, so I can't think of a better place to live and serve the Gospel. Some things about me you may not know: I was born in Perth, but raised in Sydney. I'm a twin. I drove a taxi in Sydney for 6 years. I studied at Sydney University and Moore College. I was ordained in Albuquerque, New Mexico, while doing ministry in NYC. I am married to Laurel and God has given us four fun kids.

I grew up in Sydney and I love this city. Having trained at SMBC, I spent 17 years working first in children's ministry at Christ Church St Ives, and then at Youthworks training ministry leaders and workers. I was drawn to come to Church Hill 11 years ago, in part because of the strategic importance of seeing the City filled with the Gospel. I was also drawn to the creative side of this church. I love it! So it was a delight for me to join the staff team in 2020 in the role of discipleship and maturity.

I am passionate about seeing all people deepen their relationship with God through the person of Jesus. From the youngest members of our church to the oldest. Focusing on children, women and families I seek to nurture and pastor them in their journey with Christ. Having been a member of the 10:30am service since 2011, I joined the staff team in June 2017 as a part-time Women's Coordinator and more recently have stepped in leading the Children's and Youth Ministry for the interim. I am married to Greg, and we have four children.

Although I retired from my full time position as Bishop of South Sydney at the end of 2015, I am delighted to be able to continue in active Christian ministry in a thriving local parish like Church Hill Anglican. I grew up in West Ryde Sydney and studied at Sydney University and Moore College. I served as an assistant minister in the lower Blue Mountains and in the city of Adelaide. I was rector of St Barnabas Broadway in Sydney and Anglican Chaplain to Sydney from 1983 to 2000 and Bishop of South Sydney after that. I am married to Margaret and have four children and 11 grandchildren.

I was born and raised in Sydney. I’m grateful for the opportunity I had to learn about God at Sunday school, though it wasn’t until my teens that I personally accepted Jesus. I love working with children, working in childcare early on, but mostly as a Registered Nurse specialising in Child and Family Health. I’m passionate about seeing children grow up knowing and loving Jesus. I have a heart for global mission, studying at Sydney Missionary and Bible College.

Raising four kids on my own prepared me perfectly for my role as Office Administrator for a parish as busy and vibrant as Church Hill. One of my favourite bible passages is from Colossians, ‘Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.’ These are the qualities I strive to bring to every task on my eclectic to do list. An unashamed romantic, I find great joy in helping couples plan and prepare for their wedding at either of our beautiful churches.
