Ann BreretonAnn Brereton lives in Tasmania, Australia with her husband of 30 years, David. They have 4 adult sons and one grandchild. In 1983 she accepted an invitation from her mother to attend a prayer meeting. That same year she participated in her first life in the Spirit Seminar and so began her personal relationship with Jesus. She is actively involved with the Church on a Parish level and currently serves as a Lector and Lay Liturgical Leader. In 2007 Ann, David and their youngest son Jacob lived in Uganda for 3 months with the Yesu Ahuriire Community. This experience gave her a new vision and passion for the work of Renewal worldwide. She has served Catholic Charismatic Renewal in leadership for approximately 20 years. In 2009 she was elected as the Chairperson of the Australian National Service Committee. The following year she was selected as the Australian representative on ISAO and has been given the responsibility to co-ordinate Leadership training in the Asia/Oceania Region. In 2011 she joined the ICCRS Council where she is responsible for the region of Oceania. Ann currently works part time as a Practice Manager for a Medical Practice. She considers serving the Lord a tremendous privilege and prays that one day, by His Grace, to stand before Him and sincerely echo the word from Luke’s Gospel: “We are merely servants. We have done no more than our duty”. (Luke 17:10)
