About Priya
Priya serves with her husband and children at St Marks Anglican church in Sadleir. She grew up around many South Asian and Hindu people, and it was a longing to see them know the Lord Jesus that promoted her on the journey of training for ministry. Her early appointments included supporting South Asian mission and discipleship within the local church. She currently serves as a SATYA committee member.
About Clive
Clive is married to Sarah and has three boys. God has put reaching South Asians on Clive’s heart since his university days. He helped start the Subcontinental Bible Ministry (SBM) with Priya and a few others at the University of New South Wales, which grew into a para-church fellowship and then SBM Church. Having spent more than 10 years in full-time ministry, he is now raising support (through ENC and SATYA) to equip churches in understanding Hinduism and South Asian culture, and evangelism and discipleship among South Asians.
About Ben

He loves speaking to people from every nation about the Lord Jesus—how they can trust in him, and what it means to follow him. He is also Chairman of the SATYA Committee (under ENC), which seeks to champion the promotion of gospel ministry to South Asian people, with a particular focus on evangelism and discipleship of people from a Hindu background in the Sydney Anglican Diocese and beyond.
