Senior Pastors

 Since moving to Wangaratta in January 2007 we would have to truely say, this has to be the best Country area to live in, for the whole of Victoria, if not Australia. The mountains in the backgrounds, the sloping hills and picturesque landscapes- this is certainly a beautiful area.(And I'm not talking about the many wineries we have located around this region??)

We commenced ministry in the early nineties and we have witnessed that God is in the AREA of changing lives. In the early days of becoming a Christian, we both felt a strong leading to do what we can through the power of the Holy Spirit and to co-labour with Jesus to help build the local church, which is the hope of the world.

We believe that every person can greatly influence another. We desire to have as much influence as possible upon and in the Christian family and wider community. We have a strong belief towards families and providing the best ministry focus to cater for growth and impact in these areas. To assist in bridging the generational gap that exists between parents, youth and children.

Having experienced ministry at various levels including; lay ministry, kids club, children’s ministry, youth leadership, and senior Executive Pastor roles, these have all helped to bring an overall understanding to the needs of families and generational changes needed in our society and churches.

With over 12 years of ministry experience including lay ministry. Our experience extends to churches of various sizes from 50 people to 1000 plus people, our value for team and people involvement draws people to make strong commitments to ‘seeing lives change’. We continue to look forward to all that God has for us as leaders and as senior Pastors of Riverland church, come now VictoryLife!

We invite you to visit us soon and say hello.
