Harbourside Presbyterian Church Coffs Harbour | Trainer: Ben Smith

Hi there!

I’m Reuben, I have been married to Charlotte since 2021, I have a border collie and a cat at home, and I love cricket, the true Aussie sport.

I’m very excited to start a ministry traineeship at Harbourside Presbyterian Church in 2023. I’ve been thinking about a traineeship for the past 18 months, as I love serving Jesus and telling and teaching others about the awesome, life-changing news that is the gospel. Throughout the next 2 years I’m looking forward to God growing me in my personal relationship with Him, my ministry experience and skills, and shaping me to where He wants me to serve in His kingdom in the future.

In my apprenticeship I will be:

• Leading at youth group
• Discipling youth and young adults
• Getting involved in the 5pm congregation and helping build a community there
• Teaching SRE at a local primary school
• And more!

I’d be so encouraged by any support you can provide, whether by prayer or financial, as I do this traineeship.

Prayer Points

Please be praying for Charlotte and I as we take this next step into ministry, that we’d be trusting in God that He knows where He wants us to be.

Thank God for MTS, and the opportunity that Harbourside Presbyterian has given me to undertake a traineeship there.

Pray that God will be working through my ministry work, that through it people will grow in Him and His name will be glorified.
