Parish Office Manager: Sue Dunn
I have been a member of the Mona Vale Anglican Church family since 2009. I am married to Simon and have 2 kids, Katelyn and Andrew. My journey of coming to Christ began in 2009 through the process of having my then 3 month old daughter baptised. Prior to that I hadn’t realised that knowing about God and knowing God were actually two very different things. It was the promises that I had made to God during that baptism ceremony that completely changed my life. I realised then and there that a person can lie to their family and friends, they can even lie to themselves but they can’t lie to God – because he always knows what you’re actually thinking and doing – even before you do! The most mind blowing thing for me is that God knows everything about us, yet he still loves us anyway. That is one incredible love. During the baptism I had promised God that I would teach my kids about Him and to bring them up knowing Him and so began my incredible journey of faith which led me here to love the people of this parish and beyond. I can be found on Mondays at our Avalon Beach office and on Tuesdays through to Thursdays at Mona Vale. |
