Arya Lawalata

Production Manager

Before joining CTK as part of the team, Azarya Lawalata was part of the IES Jakarta family from the very beginning. He grew up in that church; his claim to fame is having attended every single TEENS camp there, both as a teen and later on as a leader. Arya is now embarking on a new season in the family history as the Production Manager at Christ the King.

Arya married his college sweetheart, Martha, and they are blessed with a daughter, Anaia. When he is not being a husband, a dad, and the Production Manager at Christ the King, Arya teaches at a school in West Jakarta. To keep his sanity, his unwinding "weapon" of choice is playing action-adventure and FPS games. He is also quite an avid Star Wars fan. He watches Star Wars chronologically–according to the story timeline, not their release dates–and is known for not wanting to watch trailers or read news of the movies prior to their release. Arya is passionate about bringing together services in such a way that points people to Christ, and he views this Virtual Age (a.k.a COVID Era) as a challenge and an opportunity to rethink how to "do" church in a creative way.

Starting in 2023, Arya is embarking on his theological studies, working towards the Master of Theology (MTh) degree at STT Satyabhakti.
