In our program we have tried to meet the needs of all men from young singles to young marrieds and dads, to working men, and also the retired and widowed. So if you’re local, come along, and make some true friends.
Men’s ministry currently holds a breakfast each Tuesday morning from 7am till 8am, where men spend time in the Word of God, fellowshipping together and sharing a breakfast. $5 donation to cover breakfast costs.
We would love to see you there!
Fellaship
In the busy life of family, work and study demands there is more pressure put on men today. Fellaship is an opportunity for men to come together, share struggles, learn more about being a man of God and encourage each other in their daily walk with God.
Fellaship meets once a month on a Thursday evening usually in the church cafe for a time of fellowship, encouragement and prayer. There are also other activities through the year like the August Dad's 'n' Lad's camp, providing the opportunity to get away and build relationships, whilst enjoying the things that just us guys like to do!
If you'd like to know more catch up with Josh Ridley or Dallas Bates or Josh Clarke.

Young Adults (Tuesday Nights)
From school leavers to late twenties, our young adults small group is the place where young adults who want their lives to count can get together and find their purpose and calling.
This small group is where young people can discover what it is that God has for them; that there is a purpose; that they really do matter; that Jesus Christ is calling them to follow Him, and to know Him and the power of His resurrection in their lives in a profound way; and that God has something incredibly significant for them to do with each our lives that will resonate for all eternity.
Jesus said “the thief comes only to steal, and to kill, and to destroy… but I have come that you might have life, and that you may have it abundantly!” There was a woman one time, who gave Him some water to drink when he was hot and tired and thirsty. He said to her “whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”
We hope young people find the abundant life that satisfies the inner recesses of the human soul forever, and that flowing out of each of us in turn, countless others can find that life in Jesus Christ as well.
CCC Young Adults is currently held at the Kelly’s house each Tuesday night during school terms at 7:00pm.
During our Sunday morning services we offer a kids program during school terms:
Sunday School
Sunday-School Program for Children in Kindergarten to Grade 7. Our teachings are age-appropriate and follow a set, approved curriculum of a conservative, evangelical, biblical nature. In lessons, children hear Bible stories, concepts and explore what is taught through activities such as games and art. We aim to introduce our children to Jesus and foster their relationship with Him for life. We believe in encouraging our children to come alongside others as a caring brother or sister would. We do not discriminate against any children with special needs from our Sunday-School program.
Sunday School is the second and fourth Sunday of the month (also on the fifth Sunday when there are five Sundays in a month) Children enjoy a special 'all together' program on the third Sunday of the month, known as Harvest Sunday, headed up by Juline Michell.
For any questions about Sunday School, please contact Matt Bowers.
Creche is run each week throughout the year during our Sunday morning services (excluding 2-3 weeks surrounding Christmas & New Years)
Creche is directed at children aged 0-4 and allows parents to be able to be involved in the church services as their young ones are cared for by our volunteers, all of who have current Working With Children Checks and Mandatory Notification (RAN) training.
In addition to our Creche room, there is a cry room or feeding room facility with a direct line of sight into the main auditorium, with a wet area and feeding facilities for you to privately comfort and feed your little ones, without worrying about how noisy they may be!
If you'd like to know more ask for either Steph Burford or Annette Bowers, our Creche Leaders.
