Ben George

Graduated 2017.

Serving in the vibrant communities of Auburn and Newington, Moore College graduate Ben George is passionate about cross-cultural ministry. As chairman of Satya—South Asian Tide for Yesu in Australia—Ben partners with churches to better reach the growing South Asian population across Sydney. In a city where cultures converge, he sees a glimpse of the Revelation 7 vision: people from every nation worshipping Jesus. His prayer is for more workers and more churches equipped to reflect that beautiful diversity.

Graduated 1995.

Stuart Pearson didn’t follow the typical path to ministry—he was a tradesman who hadn’t been to university before attending Moore College in the 1990s. But over the next two decades, Stuart faithfully shepherded St Luke’s Liverpool, helping it grow into a vibrant, multicultural church with a thriving children’s and youth ministry. Even after a stroke forced early retirement, Stuart continues to preach God’s Word and encourage pastors. His story is a testimony to God’s grace, perseverance, and the power of long-term ministry.

Graduated 2004.

After becoming a Christian in high school and training at Moore College, Ben Underwood followed a call into parish ministry that led him across Sydney and now to Perth. As rector of St Edmund’s in Wembley, Ben has helped revitalise a church in need of a fresh chapter—establishing new services, youth and children’s ministries, and a growing sense of community. His recent postgraduate study at Moore has deepened his understanding of God and further equipped him for years of faithful ministry ahead.

Graduated 2019.

Matt Smith’s path to Moore College began early—sparked by a high school teacher who introduced him to in-depth Bible study. After graduating in 2019, Matt and his wife moved to Perth, where he now leads the AFES team at UWA Christian Union. Passionate about evangelism and training the next generation, Matt is helping students grow in maturity, courage, and gospel conviction. In a city where churches are closing and workers are few, he’s committed to seeing more students equipped to serve for the long haul.

Graduated 2001.

From North Sydney to Adelaide to the lower Blue Mountains, Ken Noakes has spent over two decades teaching and discipling others with confidence shaped by his time at Moore College. Now running a local School of Ministry using Moore College’s PTC materials, Ken is passionate about raising up new leaders who are grounded in the Bible and equipped to disciple others. What started with hesitation became a lifelong ministry of faithfully handling God’s Word and helping others do the same.
