Kieran leads a team of volunteers who run our youth ministry (for everyone in high school). He loves youth ministry because it was a missing ingredient in a critical time of his life, but now he recognises the value of good Christian friends and mentors. Kieran's priority is to engage the head and heart through clear Bible teaching and help teenagers to own their personal faith. He also loves having a good belly-laugh with his wife Ruth, listening to good bands, and watching Australia play sport.

Watching our sons Craig and Matthew grow in their faith to become teenagers and young adults, passionate about Jesus, is something we cherish. We also enjoy camping, 4 wheel-driving and watching movies - when we get the time!"
