Having grown up in Roseville, Shaun served Jesus in Wollongong and North-West Sydney before joining our church in 2020. He loves the rich diversity of our local community, and is passionate about sharing with everyone the good news of Jesus. For Shaun, time off couldn’t be better spent than relaxing with his wonderful wife Danielle, his 5 fabulous children and 4 delightful grandchildren.
Shaun is responsible for the overall leadership of the church and leads the 8:30am and 10:30am congregations and growth groups.

Silas Thiem | Equipping Minister
Silas had the joy of growing up in a Christian family and came to follow Jesus himself as a teenager. Gripped by the life-changing message of the gospel, he desperately wants to see others connect to the life, love, and freedom that Jesus offers, and he still dreams of seeing a revival in Sydney. Convinced that God uses our efforts to make a concrete, eternal difference in people’s lives, he loves seeing people empowered to use their gifts and play their part in God’s big story. Silas is married to Hannah and has a 3-month-old son, Orion. In his free time, you’ll find him enjoying specialty coffee, journaling, or teaching his dog a fun new trick.
Silas oversees the Equip dimension of church life, helping the church serve Jesus joyfully and effectively.
