I love to see kids and families encounter Jesus, explore faith, enjoy church and be equipped for life. I can help with support, resources and opportunities to enable your parish to be a space of warm welcome for families to worship and belong.

Amanda comes from Canada with a passion for mission and children’s ministry. Alongside her diocesan role, she is a community engagement worker for Atawhai.
Kids team and parish support. I prioritise meeting with kids’ leaders, teams and church leaders to offer support, encouragement and strategy to enable effective kids ministries.
Resources. I have various resources for various contexts, like Sunday school and peer programmes and curriculums, as well as intergenerational service planning resources and ideas.
Intermediates. I host gatherings for intermediates across the diocese each term.
Events and training. I can help you attend various training events, in our diocese and beyond, and can run specific trainings for your context on request.
