Tania Nelson
Manager
Tania loves spending time with her family, reading and beach walks – and her ‘heaven’ is combining all three at the beach shack at Moonta. She is passionate about sharing Jesus’ love and believes that media presents so many life-giving opportunities to share the hope to be found in Jesus.

Joanne Chamberlain
Communication Coordinator
Joanne lives in the Barossa Valley with her husband and four children. Living on a small rural property, she enjoys walking through the local reserve and curling up on the verandah with a good book or playlist, a nice Barossa red and watching the splendour of God’s creation. As she meets with people and hears their remarkable stories of faith, she is inspired by the many stories of hope through adversity.

Emma Strelan
Production Assistant
Emma loves listening to and sharing people’s stories. She spends her weekends filming weddings around Adelaide, and her nights studying theology or reading a good book. Emma trained in film production and loves using her media skills to share the message of hope found in Jesus to people in Australia and beyond.

Sarah Wiltshire
Administration Assistant
Sarah enjoys getting to know supporters and hearing their stories. She is a wife and mother of four, a passionate music lover, occasional flute player and self-proclaimed coffee addict. When not working, Sarah can be found gaming with her family, hiding with a book, watching TV or swimming in a pool.
