Rachael and her husband Luke live in Perth Australia, with their two children Toby & Mela (and more irregularly through foster care). Rachael pioneered and pastored the worship & prayer culture in Paradox Church for over 10 years before the Lord led her out into a new season, sifting and molding her heart and turning her focus towards motherhood, homeschooling, increasing worship & prayer in her city, (including a regular Wednesday prayer set at Without Walls) gathering a house-church community and living from (and equipping on) union with Jesus. 

Born in Botswana, Africa, Rachael is both a Pastor’s kid and a Missionary kid. She loves family getaways, honest and hilarious fellowship with friends, decaf coffee, reading novels, creating, teaching, running with her family and watching her kids play basketball.

Rachael and Luke currently host a monthly Maranatha gathering with friends across Perth. This is a hub where families and those who are family gather to worship Jesus and be equipped. Maranatha is also intentional about leading the children to encounter Jesus and be activated in His Presence.
