Our Team

Reverend Tracy Lauersen was appointed as Rector of St Paul’s Warragul in 2018. She is married to Sven and they have two daughter's: Abbey and Freya. Tracy came to faith in Christ as a young adult and studied theology and ministry at Sydney Missionary and Bible College. She had a career in corporate training and development before being called to ordained ministry where she has ministered in school chaplaincy and parish settings. She is an advocate for gender equity in the Church and chairs a National Working Group on Family Violence for the Anglican Church of Australia. Tracy loves seeing people come to faith and to grow in their understanding of Jesus Christ – a joy she first discovered by volunteering on a Beach Mission Team and by teaching religious education in a local high school. She and Sven moved to Warragul from inner Melbourne to serve here and love the tree change! Baw Baw shire, its people, it's climate, it's night sky - all awesome. Please contact Tracy to ask any questions you may have about our Church or about how you can find out more about Jesus.
