They raise four boys and there are now 10 grandchildren.
After studying for the Baptist ministry at Morling College[1973-77] Lyn served Jesus in two Sydney churches [Peakhurst & Sans Souci] before coming to Canberra in 1985 to be the Pastor of Dickson Baptist [25 years] and then Hughes Baptist [6 years.] In 2017 he concluded paid roles and has continued to serve in mentoring Christian leaders, chaplaincy at Parliament House, chair a mission organisation and provide general pastoral, preaching and consultancy services to churches.

(Looking to Jesus - looking forward to heaven )
Joshua 24:14 “So fear the Lord and serve him wholeheartedly. … Serve the Lord alone. 15 But if you refuse to serve the Lord, then choose today whom you will serve. Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served? .. But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.”
