Julie leads a community-engaged church, which fosters the idea of equipping and releasing all people for the life and works Jesus has for them. Her previous employment in Foreign Aid & Development, studies in cross-cultural ministry and teaching/training has formed her approach in serving others and building them up. In her early 20s, someone took the time and care to explain the good news of Jesus Christ in a way she understood, she has been passionate to now do the same for others, in various sub-cultures across Australia.
Julie and her husband Andrew enjoy their family, their playful puppy and creative projects.

Xiaoxi is 'mainly' from Australia, and spent most of it near Monash University in Clayton, so is excited to have a change of scenery, and join the community at All Saints' Greensborough while also ministering at The Parish of Banyule. She is married to Weiyi and have two children named Charlie and Charlotte. She loves getting to hear people's stories and sharing the stories that Jesus tells with those who haven't heard them before. She is really looking forward to getting to know you all better as the year goes on (and pre-thanks you for attempting to say her name; the two 'X's' can be quite intimidating!) AND if you like earrings...she'd love to share and compare!
