As we look to pastorally care well for those in our church family as well as support the mission agendas of our activities we need to mobilise and add to the Ministry Team in strategic ways. Looking toward 2030, we will need to be very intentional in who and how we add staff in order to keep up with growth.
With continued growth (in the coming years) there is need for...a Minister (Women), a Minister (Church Planting), a Minister (Music) - and a restructure which will both reduce the number of people reporting directly to Ken Noakes and increase our capacity to do both evangelism and training. We are also aware of the Administry load - will we need more admin, finance or visual production support?
Please pray for the current, new and future Ministry Team appointments
When not chasing after very active and sporting kids, or tutoring others to excel academically, or changing her hair colour to any shade on the colour palete, Gail oversees our Kids Talk program and coordinates and teaches in the Western Region a-GAPe Challenge program - a mission and ministy Gap year for recent school leavers.
Liv is excited to commence the Master of Divinty program at Sydney Missionary and Bible College (SMBC) in 2025, and thankful for the opportunity to serve as a trainee minister at LMAP. Pray that God would continue to shape Liv to be more like Jesus, for flexibility to adjust to the changes that full time study brings, and for wisdom to form habits around study, church and rest.
Tim loves Jesus and loves helping people know Jesus. Tim will be seeking to do this as he serves and learns as a student minister at LMAP. He is married to Susannah and has two kids under the age of 4, who he enjoys adventuring with. God-willing, they hope as a family to serve in a parish context, teaching and walking alongside people from all stages and ages.
We have loved watching Jared grow in Mission and Ministry as a YouthWORKS trainee over the last three years. He completes his study at the end of this year.
With the hope that we commence a new Western Region a-GAPe Challenge program, Jared has agreed to join the administry team for a day each week whilst working in schools the rest of the week.
