Brisbane School of Theology

Welcome, Va!

We’re excited to welcome Va to the BST staff team! Va has joined us three days a week as our new Events Officer, helping us plan and deliver events that bless our students, alumni, and the wider Christian community.

Va brings a rich mix of ministry experience and professional training. Since moving to Brisbane from Rockhampton in 2015, she has served her local church in leadership roles across Youth, Young Adults, and Worship. Alongside her ministry, she completed a dual Bachelor in Justice and Psychology at QUT, before feeling God’s call to shift from youth justice into vocational ministry. To deepen her formation, she went on to complete a Graduate Diploma in Ministry with CHC in 2023.

This year, Va has also stepped out in faith with a group of young adults from her church to plant a new congregation, where she now serves on the pastoral and worship teams. She’s passionate about seeing the next generation know God and be transformed by His grace.

When she’s not planning events or serving at church, you’ll likely find Va outdoors; walking, playing sport, relaxing at the beach, or enjoying a good iced coffee while getting creative through music and design.

Please join us in giving Va a warm BST welcome and in praying for her as she begins this new season with us.
