Better Together
At the end of this year we are undertaking some really exciting changes to our church, that also come with some big challenges.
We are doing this, first and foremost, because we love the Lord Jesus and are passionate about serving him and growing his people. Our comfort in facing such change is the sure knowledge that God is sovereignly in control and always brings about his glorious plans and purposes.
This page is where you can find information and updates as we work together towards our December 3rd launch date. Will you pray with me that the Holy Spirit would ensure we are united in love and filled with the desire to proclaim the powerful word of God?

Getting the Buildings Ready
1. Paint the Interior of the Church
Over a series of epic working bees and painting days, we have repainted the inside of the church building. Gone are the pinks and olives to go with the salmon carpet, replaced by attractive whites and greys. It looks and feels much lighter and fresher as a result.
2. Air Condition the Church
In the first week of the school holidays (starting 25th September) air conditioning will be installed in the church building. As our building is very hot in summer and particularly cold in winter this will make a big difference to people coming to church and being able to listen well and concentrate!
3. New Carpet in the Church
The second week of the holidays (from October 2) will see new carpet laid throughout the church building. The existing carpet is wearing and torn in places (and could possibly show some evidence of the painting days, but don’t tell anyone). New carpet will look and feel fresh, as well as provide hard wearing floor covering for many years to come.
4. Renovate and Improve the Ministry Centre
Parish Council has recently appointed a Designer/Project Manager to oversee the project of renovating the Ministry Centre beginning early in the new year. In the scope of works is a new disabled toilet, 3 new women’s toilets, a new kitchen, modifications to enhance the space for children’s and youth ministry as well as improved lighting and entrances to make it suitable for morning teas and congregational events. Other exciting plans are also included in this project to help particularly with the transition between congregations.
