Sarah is a pastor's wife, a mother, and an "Oma" to four adorable grandchildren.

Sarah, and her husband Chris, are blessed to minister to one of the oldest known indigenous aboriginal cultures in the world.  They also journey long distances to visit isolated farmers in the harsh Australian outback, people who often endure weeks, months, and sometimes even years, of unpredictable weather, flooding, drought, and fire.

For many years Sarah was a school chaplain in Queensland's state schools.  She trained and worked in the mental health and community services sector, where she ministered to families in the often marginalised and forgotten parts of society.

Sarah is originally from Christchurch, New Zealand.  After many "ups and downs" as a single young mother, Sarah met and married the love of her life, Chris.  A few years later they sold their seaside cottage and moved, by faith, to the city of Cincinnati, USA, where her husband attended a Christian university to complete his Masters degree.  After living in the USA for a time, God called them to Australia, and into congregational church ministry.

Sarah and her family have lived in a wide variety of places and settings; on rural sheep farms, in stunning coastal cottages, and in bustling city apartments.  Today you will find them at home in the beautiful far north of Queensland, Australia, where you will also often find them ministering in local churches, or "camping" in remote places in far North Queensland.  This is the space where they share the good news of the gospel, and the story of how Jesus gives us peace, blessings, and especially hope, in these uncertain times.

Sometimes, as can often happen in the remote bushland of Australia, you may find them attending to the unexpected God-appointed meetings with one or two strangers; strangers who will often become friends, while pulling up a chair to have a chat, and to enjoy the campfire.
