John married Anna way back in 1990 and has since been enjoying the best years of his life. These days they share their lives with three great kids, Erin, Adam, and Kate. After finishing bible college in 2001, John was called to serve as pastor at Pennant Hills.
John's passionate about explaining the Bible in a clear and convicting way so as to lead people into a greater awareness of God's love. He's also pretty keen on paddling kayaks and fishing - preferably at the same time.
Richard Tavender - Ministry Development Pastor
Richard trained as a fitter-machinist and worked in the industry for 10 years. At 26, he felt called to vocational ministry and was trained in Theology, Pastoral Ministry, Counselling and Religious Education at Morling College. Since 1989, he has served in various ministry contexts including Pastoral Ministry, Youth Ministry and Religious Education in High Schools.
Together with his wife, Lyn, they have two adult children - Michael and Amy. His interests include kayaking, bush walking, fixing machines, reading, watching historical documentaries, and listening to a wide variety of music. Richard has a passion to help people discover Jesus and experience a vibrant life of serving him.
Jonny Lam - Student Pastor
Jonny is finishing off his studies in Theology, and has always seemed to be connected to some sort of learning - either as a student or as a teacher. He's not convinced that education will save the world, but is pretty confident that God is doing that. He works for Penno Baps one and a half days a week leading a home group and overseeing Sunday morning church services.
He prefers milkshake over coffee, listening over talking, and playing over watching sport. He is married to Joyce, and they like to relax together over good food.
