Melissa Conway is the assistant priest at St James’ Anglican Parish in Toowoomba, with special responsibility for St Anne’s Church in Highfields, where she has served since December 2021. Melissa works in community building and partnerships, discipleship, pastoral care, social justice, earth care, liturgy, liturgical music, and small group leadership. Melissa is motivated to share the love of God and the reality of God’s kingdom, here and now, with the people she meets.

Melissa brings MOW enthusiastic teamwork, in the belief that we are stronger together and when we lift each other up. The skills she has gained in managing teams, projects and change initiatives over a long career in public service are shared towards building an ever broader and stronger organisation.
