An Update About BASECAMP Sydney

After a decade of running both our Sydney one day event and our Mountains overnight weekend, we have made the decision to focus solely on the Katoomba weekend experience from 2026 onwards.

Meet Our Speakers for 2026

Matt Fuller

Vice president of discipleship programming for The Gospel Coalition (TGC).

Matt Fuller is the Senior Pastor at Christ Church Mayfair in central London, where he has served since it was planted in 2001.

Despite being 5 mins walk from Buckingham Palace, he has never been invited for tea and only met the Queen once. Yet, on the upside, while plodding away for 20 years, he has been privileged to see a growing ministry to families, young workers and students as well as planting a number of other churches into other parts of the city.

He also sits on the Board of the Co-mission network of churches and has authored a number of books. His great sporting love is cricket, but given the current state of the England team, he never reveals that to Aussies.

Matt Steele

Vice president of discipleship programming for The Gospel Coalition (TGC).

Matt Steele is a pastoral supervisor and coach who works with Christian leaders, churches and organisations to help them navigate ministry and relationship challenges with maturity and faithfulness. He’s also an ordained Anglican minister and spent about 15 years ministering in various church roles in Sydney.

He is a son, a brother, a husband, a dad and a follower of Jesus. He is fascinated by the way relationships affect and form people—and also by the way people affect and form those around them.

He was blessed to grow up with Christian parents who modelled what it means to trust in Jesus, and one of his great joys is watching his kids grow into young adults and work out what following Jesus looks like in their own lives.

However, there is one relationship in his family which is more duty than delight. He is still trying to work out how their “family” groodle became solely his responsibility, but neither she nor his kids will explain it to him.
