 | Dave McDonald will be returning to the KCC platform as a speaker for Katoomba Easter Convention 2018. Dave is the inaugural National Director for the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches. He has previously been the senior pastor at Crossroads and Stromlo churches in Canberra. Dave is married to Fiona and they have four children and two grandsons. At the age of 17, Dave was encouraged to consider gospel ministry. He completed a ministry apprenticeship at the University of NSW and a Bachelor of Theology at Moore Theological College. In 1989 Dave left for Canberra to work with AFES and in 1996, planted Crossroads Christian Church. |
In 2011, Dave was suddenly hospitalised with a shock diagnosis of 'incurable' stage 4 lung cancer. He was only given a year to live but God graciously extended his life and returned him to good health. Through his experience, God opened the door for Dave to minister to other cancer patients, and to write a book called Hope Beyond Cure which speaks of the eternal hope he has in Jesus Christ.

Katoomba Christian Convention (KCC) has partnered with Peloton Cafe Charity Events & Pleezpay to host the Katoomba Oxygen Cycling Challenge. The challenge aims to raise funds to sponsor Christian leaders in isolated and disadvantaged contexts to attend the Oxygen Christian Leaders Conference taking place in Sydney in June.
Launched in 2011, Oxygen is Australia’s largest and only interdenominational, national, ministry conference. The conference has served over 3,700 delegates from every state and territory in Australia and from countries as far as Dubai, India, Nigeria and Spain. For many Christian leaders, Oxygen is a unique time to rest under God’s word, and to worship in the company of thousands of like-minded gospel workers:

"Oxygen conference has not only kept me going as a Pastor but also as a Christian. I want others to have the opportunity to have the same experience I have had. Many leaders work in remote places with isolation and little support. I want to give them an opportunity to make connections with others for life; be encouraged and equipped for their roles."
- L-T Hopper, KCC Church Partnerships Director
