Pastor

Wallan Gateway Pastor is Andrew Adams.

Andrew and wife Kathy married in 1996 and have three children. They have recently completed buiding a home and now live in Hidden Valley. Their three children attend school in the area.

Before moving to Wallan to plant the church, Andrew worked in commercial banking and youth ministry. Immediately prior to planting WGC, Andrew was the full-time Youth Pastor of Shepparton Baptist Church for a number of years. Kathy is a primary school teacher and is currently teaching at Beveridge Primary School. In addition to Andrew’s role here at WGC he is also highly involved in the community and is currently the Wallan Tennis Club President. 

Roxanne Tipping is our newly appointed youth ministry leader.  Roxanne and husband Ross married in 1993 and now live in Sugarloaf Creek, along with their three children.  Immediately prior to accepting the role with WGC, Roxanne worked at Toyworld and has also worked as an adventure travel consultant.  Both occupations hold her in good stead for working with our youth!  Roxanne’s ultimate goal is to see today’s youth mentored and encouraged in their walk with Jesus Christ, and to provide a positive peer group for the youth of our church and the wider community.
