Athanasios was born in Greece and at the age of 14 migrated to Australia with his family. It was here that he first heard the gospel message, started to read the Bible, and the Lord opened his eyes to see his need of salvation. He repented and put his trust in Christ for the forgiveness of his sins at age 15.
Athanasios has completed a Bachelor in Pharmacy and Bachelor of Ministries in Australia; Master’s in theology and Doctor of Ministry at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville Kentucky, U.S.A. He has served in church ministries for most of his adult life in various capacities. He joined the Pastoral team at Redemption Church in 2018.
He has been happily married to his wife Ruth for 29 years. Athanasios enjoys collecting figurines, reading comic books and watching European football.
