Church Finder

  I built up a database of over 9000 churches around Australia. So I created churchfinder.com.au as a website with a complete online list of churches of all denominations around the country. Church Finder allows you to connect with churches in your area or anywhere around Australia. If you are visiting an area on holidays and don't know where to go to church, then Church Finder will help you. The same if you move house, Church Finder will be a great aid. I sold advertising and marketing expertise for organisations looking to connect with churches and colleges. College Finder was launched Oct 2014 and quickly gained popularity. If you are looking for a Christian College collegefinder.com.au listed all the options and contact details. Schools Finder was in production when I gained full time employment at ONE80TC so I handed the ministry to a friend.
