Exciting Changes at Unichurch

April 1st, 2010 by Rory Shiner Posted in Uncategorized

I’m very excited to announce that the Shiners are expecting again – God has blessed us with twins! This September Susan, Miles, Theodore, Oscar and I are going to be joined by Rupert and Seamus. If these two are as energetic as their three brothers, we’re going to have a lot on our hands!

We look forward to this great blessing, but with a family of five boys to care for, there will be opportunities for several of  the more capable interns to step up into new positions to help share the load. The new roles will be:

Jennie – Senior pastor
Ed & Sally – Preaching pastors
Dave – Women’s pastor
Andrew – UCI pastor
Rory – Technology pastor
Jon – Ministry intern

In my new role I’ll be working on exploring the ministry potential of Twitter, and thinking about how to improve the main St Matthew’s website. You can have a look at my design ideas here.

It’s exciting to see what God is doing at Unichurch this year!

Blessings,

Rory

    Hey, Rory, don’t scare me like that! My dad (and mum) has looked after us five children, and still managed a full pastoral role in Adelaide, Bridgetown and eventually in Cottesloe, Perth! I encourage you in your work :) , but your tech skills are best left for blogs with pics!

    I LOVE THE NEW WEBSITE!!!! ROFL! It should definately replace the current one and you should definately be the new technology pastor! “On Slow Road”
    In all seriousness though, congrats on twins! Do you know they are boys already?

    Just in case you missed it, this was an April Fools Day trick.

    Jon Rumble is the man responsible.

    He is now looking for work.
