CHESTER HILL Community Chaplain ‘E’…

I’m Chaplain Ie Erlina. You can call me ‘E’!

I came to Australia when I was 19, and I was formerly trained and worked as a Visual Communication in Design (or short for Graphic Design). This made me value any type of communication, not just through language but also through art, body language and cultural expression.

So, I love listening to people’s stories!

As well as design, I had the opportunity to minister to vulnerable women in both red light districts and corrective services settings.
This privilege shaped my desire to walk as Jesus did, hanging out with those who are considered ‘the outcast’ by society.

I am currently serving the community in Chester Hill and surrounding suburbs.
My aim is to listen well to be able to provide for the needs of the multicultural community and migrant mums in the area.

I am running a Positive Lifestyle Program, an 8-session program designed to build self-awareness to help hone positive changes.
