3 Minuter Sue McGovern

Sue’s variety of work over the years has all had a strong community focus. This interest has been matched with formal studies; general and psychiatric nursing, counselling studies and trade courses. This has enabled Sue to respond to communities post natural disasters– significant fires in South Australia, and Kinglake (Black Saturday) and with Blaze Aid in Queensland. Sue’s current studies focus on spiritual direction which aims to explore with others their relationships with God. When Sue finishes this 2 year course she will tell us what it is all about!
