Vilma, long term parishioner, Liturgical Assistant (lay service leader), prayer advocate and guardian, advocate for community building events, Life Group Leader, and a pastor amongst all congregations.

The Vicar, Wardens and vestry discerned to add Laly midyear 2021, and was unanimously added at the end of our Patronal Feast Day of St Christopher on 25 July!  Laly, a scientist with lots of letters behind her name, has a long investment into our church, leading in several areas and brings huge insight to our vestry.

Keith cimes to us with experience on vestry at St Peter’s at Church Corner.  Here at St Chris’, Keith serves on data team as well.

Sarah has returned to vestry for a third term at our last AGM.  She is a Liturgical Assistant (lay service leader) in our worship team, Church fair director veteran and loves providing hospitality.  She also leads a professional women’s Life Group.  She and Steven have two young adult sons.  Her working life as a Sonographer is people focused, so Sarah loves to see healthy growing relationships at St Christopher’s.

Mark has been a part of our family for over thirty years.  He’s been part of the leadership team, well over twenty years.  Mark is one of the worship team and tech leaders and cares for all the audio-visual systems for our parish, as well as runs the enormous audio/visual systems for the huge Easter Camps each year.

Cathy has been at St Christopher’s for years.  She is a Doctor (GP) along with her husband John.  They lead a Life Group, host a prayer group, help with missions, especially Ingwavuma Orphanage in South Africa.  They are both prayer champions in our parish and help as the wise states people every church desires.

Murray, was co-opted onto vestry for 2022.  a long time member of the parish, is a sort of not really retired real estate agent with most of his adult life invested in our community.  His help and development in helping in the smart physical and hospitality experience (He and Eileen owns a successful hospitality venue for many years), as well as building a smart business sense is indispensable.  At the next AGM he’ll be nominated as a full member of vestry.

Kirsty May serves on our vestry and often is most helpful with her legal mind, not just on legal counsel to be wise, but her critical strategic perspective and thinking wider than the issue at hand. Kirsty is a veteran and serving member of Standing Committee (Synod cabinet when Synod is out of session, serving as governance and counsel to +Peter).
