Major Sandra McLean is The Salvation Army Australia’s General Manager of the ‘Generations and Faith’ stream in the Mission Support Department. It’s a long job title, but basically, she’s a woman on a mission to help Salvos across Australia connect people to Jesus in new ways. Sandra has been a Salvation Army Officer for decades with appointments across a wide range of roles in Australia, New Zealand and Sri Lanka. Highlights include leadership of six diverse faith communities, including a multicultural corps in New Zealand, Divisional and Territorial Youth leadership roles, several lecturing roles at Eva Burrows College, working in leadership with Aboriginal peoples in Central Australia, and now helping frontline Salvation Army Faith Community leaders to explore discipleship, faith and the future of the church, in a rapidly changing world. A mother and grandmother, Sandra connects well across generations and cultures and has a strong focus on helping people explore what it means to be faithful disciples in their specific context.
