Mark Hudson

Known for his reliance on a good short
black and golf, these keep Mark
charged up forhis family, his work
and his ministry.

Mark joined the ranks here on staff in early 2014.  
Coming from a 20 year background in the
Hospitality and Retail sector, this well equips
him to be ourevents manager for managing the
hiring out of the church's facilities to outside
groups and businesses for a range of
different requirements.

As a result of Mark's vast experience prior to
joining the team, he certainly understands
what's required, and how to find the best fit
for any organisation that'slooking for a venue. 

When asked what attracted him to join the
team here, he shared that after seeing a need
within the church, for meeting needs within
the community, he met with Senior Pastors
David & Denise over lunch and started
sharing his heart, little did he know what
this would lead to. 

Mark has been married to a young woman,
who caught his eye a few years ago, called
Astrid. In January 2016 they celebrated
20 years of marriage! With 3 teenage kids
life is action packed and busy, between
being a taxi service on game day, practises
midweek as well as performances and
rehearsals amongst other things.The things
you do for the kids that you love.

Outside of work and ministry, Mark is
known to have the a sense of humour that
is drier than the paint on your lounge room
wall. He loves all things from British comedy,
cooking delights in the kitchen that cause mini
explosions for your taste buds, to telling the
ref that he got it wrong in a football match,
all from his armchair of course.  

If he could, he would work at the airport,
purely for the love of Aviation fuel, the smell
of it that is, clearly this is concerning, and you
can be assured we don’t keep any on our
premises, so if you’re looking to hire our
venue, or reaching our community, rest
assured, we’re safe and above board, what
reinforces this, is the fact that Mark has yet
to realise this dream. (The other dream is a
trip to Tuscany, which is much more likely
as we’re investigating rumours he’s been
banned from the runway, unless he’s
actually on a plane legitimately).
