Our Minister

Hello, I’m Beth, the minister at St David’s Uniting Church, Albury. I have been an ordained Minister of the Word in the Uniting Church since 2015, and prior to that was working in children and youth ministry and studying Arts and Theology in Melbourne. I moved to Albury in 2016 to be the chaplain at The Scots School Albury, and love the community up here on the border! 

Through my ministry I enable and encourage the whole Body of Christ to participate in God’s mission. I have a particular passion for intergenerational ministry and making the church a place of radical welcome. I take seriously the church’s commitment to walking with First Nations peoples and celebrating and upholding the diversity of the UCA.

I’m married to Josh, a school teacher, and we have two young children, Hugo and Zoe. I love tennis, music and walking along the Murray with our dog Maggie.
