“I am married to Tanja and we have a daughter and a son; Evie (8) & Silas (6). We are active members of Bulli Anglican Church in northern Wollongong. I regularly preach, as well as lead a weekly Men’s Bible Study. I am an electrician and draftsman by trade and studied for full time ministry in 1992-94 at Moore Theological College. I joined Youthworks College in 2007 following 8 years as a minister at Orange Evangelical Church in the Central West of New South Wales. My last year at OEC was spent as a short term missionary in Spain with ECM where Tanja and I met & married. I am currently the Vice Principal of Youthworks College in Sydney and lecture in Biblical & Ministry Studies, including ministry to youth and young adults. My interests focus on enjoying God’s creation – the sea and other wild places. This includes surfing, mountain bike riding and bush walking. Inside interests include reading and music.” – Jim French
