Our People
Pastor – Paul Hannola
Pastor Paul and his wife Karen have been at Good Shepherd Community Church since 2016. “It doesn’t matter who you are – Jesus loves you and that can transform you forever,” Paul says. “That’s why I’m here. That’s what I’m in ministry for. This is about loving the people of our community with the love of God. That’s who we are at Good Shepherd Community Church.”
Paul is an ordained pastor in the Lutheran Church of Australia and New Zealand. He holds qualifications in ministry, theology, leadership and environmental management. Paul would love to say g’day and meet you, so why not drop him a line and catch up for a coffee and talk life. Your story matters.
