We are excited to welcome back to Ablaze Conference for the third time, Ps Shirley Melinda!
Ps Shirley (or Shirls has she prefers to be known) has been serving as the youth Pastor of Y-hope, the youth ministry of Hope Singapore since 2006; mentoring a team of committed leaders that oversees close to 900 students.
Her down-to-earth and dynamic personality shines through in her teachings and her passion for God has allowed her to move powerfully in the prophetic in previous conferences.
In previous years, Shirls not only brought herself and her Singaporean flavour to Brisbane, she also brought with her a team of young leaders. This year will be no exception as another dynamic group of young leaders from Y-hope will be joining her in Brisbane.
Shirls dream for the future is to be influencing the People of Influence – to see this generation making an impact for God’s Kingdom in every area of society.
She likes Tom Yum soup, dark chocolate, cheese fondue and avocado juice with chocolate syrup.
