Get to know the team behind our church’s mission. Our staff section introduces you to the pastors and administrative workers who keep our community thriving.
Senior Pastor
Simon is our lead pastor. He first connected with CoroUniting when he was 20, coming to faith in Jesus as part of the Youth Group. More recently he has returned with his family after ministering in the Clare Valley. Simon is married to Carolyn, with three daughters: Jesse, Tilly and Trinity
Pastor
Jethro is the pastor responsible for Youth, Young Adults and Church Structure. He is passionate about Youth and Young Adults and how to equip and train them for a lifetime of faithful service to the church and not just to get a bigger youth group.
“I love the privilege I have to work with young people, to wrestle with their big questions and with God’s help to grow and point them to Christ.”
Jethro is married to Rosie and they have two children, Daisy and Micah.
Children and Families
Larissa is our Children and Families worker. She strongly believes that children are not simply the future of the church, but that they are the church today, and it is a great privilege to teach and support them.
“Jesus wasn’t joking when He said to let the children come to Him. Children (and their families!) are valuable to Him and it is a joy to watch them grow in relationship with God.”
Larissa is married to Marcus and loves exploring with him and their four children.
Office Manager
Thom is our Office Manager and can be found around the church on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Monday afternoons. He loves nothing better than a cup of tea, a good chat, and a complicated spreadsheet.
Thom and Laura are pleased to be bringing up their two boys as part of the church family that they’ve been part of for more than a decade.
Communications Officer
James is our communications officer and maintains IT and communication systems throughout the church. He likes a good coffee, a good chat, a good boardgame, and a good neovim config file.
Meet the guiding hands of our church community. Our elders diligently steward our resources and provide wise leadership to ensure our congregation’s well-being.

Elder
Tony describes himself as “a sinner saved by God’s Grace through Jesus Christ my Lord.
Through the people He has sent my way, the cultures Jill and I have been a part of and the circumstances in which we have found ourselves, Christ has always been faithful to Himself from which we have seen His blessings.”
