OUR VISION
To grow God’s kingdom by equipping people to take their next step with Jesus
OUR MISSION
For not yet Christians to become Christians who become strong Christians who make disciples of others
Life is about Jesus.
Everything we do is centered on Jesus, whose life, death and resurrection is written about in the Bible.
We read, explain and teach the Bible in all that we do because we believe that it contains the very words of God.
We truly believe that once you know God, you can’t help but realise that all of life is meant to be about living for Him.
Church is about family.
For us, church is not just something you go to on a Sunday. So you will find us gathering in people’s homes, going for walks in the park and sipping lattes for hours because we believe that church is bigger than just four-walls.
But it all starts with just one Sunday.
8am | Traditional Service
A traditional church service where we use the Anglican Prayer Book, sing hymns and hear a message from the Bible. This service is followed by morning tea, where we eat and drink together.
10am | Family Service
This service is for big and small families! We open the Bible, sing, pray, and enjoy morning tea together afterwards. Children (0-16) join us for the start of the service, then enjoy their own program run by trained leaders.
5pm | Contemporary Service
This service has a particular focus on youth and young adults – but the group is joyfully diverse! The Bible is preached, songs are sung, and following the service we enjoy fellowship over dinner together.
