Rynelle is a graduate of Soul Shepherding’s Certificate in Spiritual Direction program where she trained and now serves as a Senior Spiritual Director. Before entering pastoral ministry, Rynelle studied Social Science in South Africa majoring in Zulu and Psychology, continuing on to do her post-graduate studies in Industrial Relations. Rynelle has enjoyed walking alongside people who feel called to cross-cultural ministry and missions. She also has a love for theology applied to everyday life and enjoys teaching in a way that clarifies truth and results in a deep love for Jesus. She also loves helping people navigate emotional and relational dynamics and seeing them encounter the presence of Jesus through prayer. 

Rynelle Frow has co-led Southlands Church, in Brea California with her husband, Alan, since 2010. They also serve as leaders on the Global Team of the Advance Network of churches. Alan and Rynelle have spent much of their years in ministry (in South Africa and the USA), coaching and caring for leaders around the world. She also runs their two Airbnbs on the side, which has given her understanding and empathy for people managing the tensions of marriage, family, ministry and business. 

Some of her favorite things to do are reading with good coffee, going for beach walks, re-decorating old houses and cooking delicious food for her friends and family. Rynelle and her husband Alan live in Fullerton California, and have three adult children; Asher, Sophie and Levi.
