All our members are encouraged to minister and serve in the church. The paid ministry team are here to equip the saints for works of service.
Rector – Joshua Kuswadi
Joshua is married to Joanna and they have three kids (Tom, Sophie and Christian). He loves the opportunity to teach others what he’s been learning from the Bible. He also has a passion for supporting ministries beyond the local parish and is on the board of Gafcon Australia.
Before moving to Darwin in July 2013, he was an assistant minister at St Matthias, Centennial Park in Sydney.
He loves exploring more of the city of Darwin, working out what makes it tick and meeting people from all over the world and Australia who call this city home. You might see him out running along Nightcliff foreshore in the morning.
Day off: Friday
Assistant Minister- Jesse Morrison
Jesse grew up in Sydney and used to work as a teacher in the UK. He’s married to Amy and they have two young boys, Solomon and Elijah. In late primary school, at a school camp, God mercifully revealed himself to Jesse through a talk about Jesus. It was this radical message about salvation found in Jesus alone that transformed his life then and compels him today.
Jesse loves meeting new people, making coffee and discovering new camping spots. If he’s enjoying some down time, you’ll most likely find him sitting somewhere with a view. He’d love for you to come and join him.
Day off: Monday
Assistant Minister- Zac Anderson
Zac grew up in Darwin and came to St Peter’s as a boy. After moving down South, he worked as a musician and in the flooring industry before training to become a minister. He’s sure that Jesus has something true, relevant, and vital to offer the world. He wants to teach the Bible and care for people to help them follow Jesus. He moved back to Darwin with his wife (Jess) and their two young children to do that… and getting to see Darwin sunsets again is pretty nice, too!
Zac enjoys good company, movies, stand-up comedy, and all kinds of music.
Day off: Monday
Administration Assistant – Felicity Chapman
Felicity works in the church office doing the admin tasks that help make St Pete’s tick. She is studying at CDU, doing biomedical science.
Felicity likes going for bike rides and baking in her free time, and enjoys watching the beauty of God’s creation in the incredible sunrise and sunset skies along the foreshore and beach.
