Welcome Rev Wendy!
A huge welcome to Rev Wendy McHugh who has now officially joined us at Alpine Uniting Church as a Community Minister. Wendy is available for people to meet with and can be contacted on 0411 627 052.
Here is a little about Rev Wendy McHugh as told by Wendy herself...
"Greetings everyone! Let me introduce myself. My name is Wendy McHugh and I was ordained as a Deacon in the Uniting Church in December 2015 at the Albert St Uniting Church, Brisbane. That's right, I'm a Queenslander. I've spent most of my life living on the northside of Brisbane, with the last six years being in Townsville. Therefore, living in Jindabyne is a very different experience for me. One thing I've learnt about journeying with God is that we can experience amazing things if/when we step out of our comfort zone and follow his call...hence, here I am.
Hopefully over time some of my family might visit, especially my two sons and my two grandchildren, so they can see this beautiful part of the world and meet the fabulous locals.
Having grown up within a Christian family and attended church since I was about 3 weeks old, I have witnessed many different aspects of and changes within the church. My formal ministry, which started in 2009, has mainly been chaplaincy within the aged care and prison sectors. In more recent years, my ministry placement has been with UnitingCare Qld Prison Ministry; promoting their ministry and recruiting, training and supporting chaplains. I continued my voluntary prison chaplaincy role until I left Townsville at the end of September this year.
I look forward to using my gifts, skills and experiences in my placment as the Community Minister here at Alpine Uniting church. I bring my God-given gifts, my life experiences, my ministry experiences, and my formal training and offer them to God and wait to see how He uses them.
I have a counselling degree and a Cert IV in Pastoral Care which help guide my pastoral heart. I want people to know they are loved and valued by God, who created them in His own image. I want to see members of Christ's body using their gifts and talents to serve our Lord and showing God's love to the world.
I look forward to journeying with God's people here in Jindy and watching what God does."
(Rev Wendy McHugh)
Jesus said
"Follow Me"
What does it look like to follow Jesus?
In the hall on Wed 6-7pm we meet together where we look into the bible to discuss and learn about how to be an apprentice
of Jesus.
