Three Pillars of Pastoral Care

Pillar 1: Pastoral care is delivered through our small group and house church network. More information is found here

Pillar 2: A Pastoral Care team operates to ensure to the best of our ability that everyone feels like they belong and are part of the church.

Pillar 3: A neighbourhood care and service centre will be developed and brought into action in the near future.

The World Needs Godly Men!

We take this challenge seriously!
Men’s breakfasts, Mentoring, Rough It Retreats, Prayer Cells and Spiritual Challenges are just the beginning as our men are encouraged to seek out their own faith in what is often a woman oriented world of faith.
We believe that in order to be godly, men need each other and God himself.

Men’s Breakfasts start at 8am and finish around 10:30am
Men’s Movie Nights start with a BBQ from 6pm
(Both at the Church)

Small Groups are a priority among us. As a church gets bigger, it’s easy to get comfortable with shallow anonymous relationships.

To encouraging belonging at all levels, we have a range of small groups available, including women’s groups that meet both in the evening and during the day, men’s groups and House Churches.

We have discovered that reading the Bible makes a difference!

The Bible Reading Challenge began in May, 2009 when about ten of us read the Bible in 90 days.  So great was the impact that we decided that there will always be a Bible reading challenge on the go.  Some are easy, some not so easy.  All are worthwhile!

Participants keep in contact by email and/or Facebook for updates, commentaries, discussion etc.

Challenges are updated often…

CURRENT CHALLENGE:

Advent Meditations!
A chance to live with a passage for several days around the Advent theme.

Have you ever kept reading a passage until it’s like you’ve never seen it before? That’s how this one works. God will speak to you through his word.

Prepare for Christmas bathed in God’s word.

Runs all four weeks in Advent

There is a high degree of participation in mentoring and being mentored. We have seen that mentoring in all its forms contributes enormously to mature spiritual formation.
Opportunities exist to be mentored, enter into prayer cells, and join spiritual formation covenant groups.
This aspect of our church life has proven to be one of the most significant in creating lasting discipleship.
