New Assistant Manager at Araluen Lutheran Camp

We have been anticipating a new Assistant Manager at our Araluen campsite in Anglesea for some time and can now share the news that Mr Kym Schilling will be starting in this role in the new year.
Kym comes from a previous Team Leader position and, at God’s prompting, is looking forward very much to working with the staff and visitors at the camp.

Kym shared with us a little of his background and journey:

“Hi, my name is Kym Schilling. I am married to Vicki and a have a daughter, Louella, and a son, Jed. I grew upon on a farm near Rainbow and have continued my love of outdoors with my family, just completing a 3-month camping trip around WA.  I have been working as an office-based Payroll Manager for government and private industry for the past 25 years.

Like many people after Covid I felt I needed something more in my vocation. Camp ministry has always been close to my heart during my youth days at CLW, Easter and zone camps. When the opportunity to work with Darren, Kerry and the team at Araluen became available I felt God was not just opening the door but pushing me through.

I look forward to the challenge God puts before me while serving him and his Church.”
