ICC Core Leaders provide spiritual oversight for the church under the auspices of the Session of Scots' Church, of which Prof Sen Sendjaya is a member.
Sen Sendjaya, PhD. (Lead Pastor)
Sen (and his wife, Ly Fie Sugianto PhD.) planted the church in 2005, and serves as the Lead Pastor until present time on a voluntary basis, preaching expository sermons most Sundays. Sen is also the Director of International Ministries at Scots' Church overseeing ICC Melbourne. Ly Fie spearheaded the Sunday School ministry in the early days, and today serves as its Advisor. They are blessed with two children.
His day job is a full and tenured professor in Leadership at a university in Melbourne. Apart from his university research and teaching, Sen trains leaders in the church, corporate, school, and nonprofit contexts in Australia and elsewhere. He is the author of Leadership Reformed (2020) and Personal and Organizational Excellence through Servant Leadership (2015), among others.
Sen likes mostly anything preceded by letter C (e.g., coffee, chilli, cab sauv, calvinism), and dislikes his old self and bad coffee.
Jevon Gasali (Pastor)
Jevon stepped into his role as Pastor at ICC Melbourne at a significant moment in the church’s life—its 20th anniversary. With academic training in both law and theology, he brings a unique perspective shaped by over a decade of diverse ministry experiences in church management, curriculum design, digital branding & marketing, and TV production.
His ministry journey has taken him across Jakarta, Singapore, and Taiwan. He's also had the privilege of having a short-term mission exposure in Myanmar, Japan, and Kenya – valuable experiences that gained him a broader view of how God is at work across cultures.
Beyond the pulpit, Jevon has been active in digital ministry and communications. He founded the Instagram-based initiative Millennial Christian in 2020 and currently serves as Communications Director for City to City Japan. He is also the author of five books, including "Gospel Immersion", "Gospel Healing", and two gospel-centered children’s titles: "Lola Loves Ice Cream" and "Who is Jesus?"
Jevon enjoys board games, chess, film, travel, and "introverted" sports —activities that keep him refreshed and active for the work of the gospel.
Benidictus Jobeanto (Treasurer)
Beni has been part of the church since day one. He and his family really enjoy serving God together with other like-minded brothers and sisters who strive to give their best wholeheartedly to God.
Since worshipping at ICC Melbourne, the gospel of Christ has significantly shaped his life and his family. He has learnt how to live in absolute surrender to God, and seen how God continues to sustain them through the people he puts around their lives at the church. Beni and his wife, Vironica, are blessed with one child.
Andy Sentosa (Secretary)
Andy joined the church in 2010, and after serving in various ministries, he is currently the Safe Church representative, apart from being the Secretary for the Church Board. He enjoys the church community where they can grow together and encourage each other.
He and his family are always in awe to see how God works in the lives of many at the church. For Andy, ICC Melbourne is a gospel-centered church where every sermon reminds him of the perfect sacrifice of Christ on the cross that made him a justified sinner in the eyes of God. Andy and his wife, Lanny, are blessed with two children.
Kezia Wijaya (Children and Youth Ministry)
Kezia has been part of ICC Melbourne since 2015, when she came to Melbourne as an undergraduate student. She now coordinates the Children and Youth Ministry, serving as one of the church staff on a part-time basis while completing her theological studies at Ridley College.
Although she grew up in a Christian family, it was at ICC Melbourne that Kezia encountered God in a deeply personal way. As she continues to grasp the richness of the gospel, her identity in Christ has become her firm foundation. She is passionate about helping children and young people discover the love of Jesus for themselves and grow in their faith. Kezia feels grateful to belong to God’s family at ICC, where she has found gospel-centred teaching, genuine community, and the love of Christ expressed so faithfully by His people.
Hellena Souisa, PhD. (Worship)
Hellena, usually called Lena became part of ICC Melbourne in 2016. She began her journey in ministry as a singer in the worship team. Now, Lena serves as the caretaker of the worship team. Her husband, Laurensius Regi Aryoko, also serves faithfully with the usher team. Together, they feel deeply blessed to be part of the ICC Melbourne family, a place where they can grow spiritually and serve side by side.
Outside of church, Lena is a bilingual, multiplatform journalist and academic, with research interests in media studies, journalism, and communication. She describes herself and Regi as a well-balanced team: Regi is known for his culinary skills, while Lena happily enjoys the fruits of his cooking.
