The Asia-Pacific Region is pleased to announce Rev. Satish Manmothe’s appointment as the new Field Strategy Coordinator for the Australia-New Zealand Field. He will assume his new role on March 1, 2025. Rev. Manmothe succeeds Rev. Roland Hearn, who has served in this position for over four years.  

Rev. Satish has served in various ministry areas for over 32 years. He has been the District Superintendent of the Australia Southern District since 2016 and the senior pastor of Birrong Church of the Nazarene in NSW, Australia, since 1999.

Rev. Satish Manmothe graduated with a Master of Divinity from Asia-Pacific Nazarene Theological Seminary in 1992. In 2002, he graduated from the Australian College of Theology with a Master of Theology degree.

“I am deeply honored to serve as the Field Strategy Coordinator for the ANZ Field. With a deep sense of purpose and a heart for the people of this culturally diverse region, I look forward to working alongside our dedicated leaders and communities. I hope to build deeper connections, empower young and emerging leaders, and nurture vibrant, Christ-centered communities that reflect the love and grace of God. Together, we will continue strengthening the Church’s mission to make Christlike disciples in the nations. I dream of a field where the message of love, hope, healing, and transformation spreads far and wide and where every person, regardless of their background, experiences the life-changing power of Jesus Christ.” Shared Rev. Satish Manmothe.

Satish is married to Manisha, and they were blessed with a son, Avidan. Please pray for Rev. Satish and the Australia-New Zealand Field in this time of leadership transition.
