Stu brings a wealth of experience and a deep love for the Gospel to his role as Program and Partnership Manager. He has previously worked in education as a teacher, chaplain and wellbeing coordinator, and has worked as an outdoor adventure guide (whitewater kayaking, skiing, even dog sledding in the Canadian Rockies)!   

For Stu, ‘the thing that really gets me excited is seeing how God moves through ESA to have a transformative impact on the people who experience our camps and the relational work of our Pastoral Workers. I see this role as integral to supporting the work on the ground and broadening the opportunities for people to be introduced to Jesus, to be discipled and equipped for ministry’. 

Stu lives on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula with his wife and two children and a goofy labrador x whippet.
