ACWA Council

Throughout Trevor’s life, he has had the privilege of serving in a range of senior leadership roles and of running a highly successful business. His ministry roles include Senior Pastor, Associate Pastor, and Executive Pastor. He has also served as a denominational director, CEO of Southland Missions, and Psychosocial Recovery Coach, further broadening his leadership experience within the organisational community.

His commitment to organisational health and effective governance is demonstrated by his service on eight boards. Among these, he has served as Chairman on three boards and as Secretary on five. These roles have enabled him to guide and support key decision-making across diverse contexts.

Trevor is passionate about building healthy, thriving organisational communities. As a dedicated minister of God’s Word, he is committed to teaching, training, and equipping others for ministry. This passion has led him to help develop leadership teams and establish ministries in Australia and overseas, contributing to the growth and strength of the wider body.

I look forward to partnering with AC’s leadership team to fulfil God’s plan for our organisation and make an impact in the political sphere across our state and nation.

He is married with two children and is a devoted follower of Jesus Christ.  He became involved with the Australian Christians Party because he was concerned by the lack of leadership, integrity and accountability in the Australian political system.  He passionately believes that humility and the wisdom of God is necessary to make truly good decisions that serve the people well and that lay the foundations for a better tomorrow for our families and the generations to come.
