About Us
St Annes exists to bring the hope and love of Jesus to the City of Ryde and beyond. Under God, we are praying that our historic church family is about to embark on a new season of growth with our new Senior Minister, Andrew Levy who started in October last year.
There are enormous possibilities that exist around us for the gospel. St Annes is situated in a very vibrant and multicultural city. Our church has excellent facilities and a membership who are excited to see our family grow. Under God, we are financially very strong, and so we have time to build things well and with patience. St Annes is a historic church – we turn 200 in 2026, which presents an amazing mission aiming point.
The Role
The new Assistant Minister will be involved in ministries across our church, but will have a primary focus on our 10am English Congregation. This will include:
- Establishing mission pathways to connect people with the Gospel of Jesus and attract families, couples and singles into our church family
- Directing a welcome ministry for newcomers
- Building a vibrant international and intergeneration community
- Constructing a dynamic and creative service
- Overseeing the ministries to young people connected to the service
- Activating our members to use their gifts to serve across our ministries
It should be a pretty fun and active role, perfect for someone looking to hone the sort of skills it takes to lead a church into the future.
