Angela Marrott
Woonona,NSW
Summary
I grew up in Sydney in a Christian family who attended the Brethren church. I decided to be baptised at 14 years of age.
I started attending Woonona Baptist Church in 2003 when my husband, 6 month old daughter and I moved into the area. This is where I really engaged in learning about the love of God and developing an intimate relationship with Jesus.
I have enjoyed being a part of the Woonona community ever since.
I have a heart for coming alongside people, listening and waiting for the Holy Spirit's direction to plant seeds of the gospel in people's lives.
I feel I have the gift of encouragement.
I love to create relaxed and safe spaces for people to come and share life and create opportunity for them to get to know Jesus.
My heart is to be God's hands and feet in our local community.
