Rev. Dinesh Taunk
Pastor
From a practicing Hindu to a servant of Christ Jesus
I was born in a Gujarati Hindu family in India. God in His grace and mercy opened my blind eyes and saved me. After completion of Accounting degree in Australia, I was praying and seeking God’s will for my life. God through different people confirmed the calling in my life- to serve Him and His people.
By grace of God, I was able to finish Bachelor of Theology/Bachelor of Ministry from Christ College, Sydney.
I have worked as Assistant Pastor at Gracepoint Presbyterian church, Sydney. My role was to reach out to people from Indian subcontinent with the gospel in Western Sydney.
I am passionate about reaching the lost, those who do not know Jesus.
I am married to Charmie. In our free time we love trying different food and exploring new places.

He is a hard worker who has helped guide the church through some really difficult times.
He is well supported by his loving and also hard working wife Glenys and they have three adult children and a growing number of beautiful grandchildren.
Nathan Williams
Elder
Nathan has been a believer for many years, serving at different churches in various capacities.
He cares deeply for those who he knows, seeking to build them up every chance he gets.
A more servant hearted man is hard to come by, as he works very hard serving those around him well.
