Visit on Sunday

We gather as a whole church family every Sunday to worship, share stories, teach the scriptures, and seek Jesus together. On the last Sunday of the month we gather around the table, where we share food and connect more relationally. Whatever your background, Sunday's are a great place to connect with us for the first time.

Consider baptism

Baptism is a public declaration of your faith in Jesus and a step of obedience in your journey with Him. It’s a way of saying, “I belong to Jesus, and I’m committed to following Him.” If you’re ready to take that step, or just want to explore what baptism means, we’d love to chat with you. Let us know if you’re interested in being baptised.

As our church continues to grow, we’re committed to being more than just a Sunday crowd—we want to be a community that’s truly formed together, where people can know others and be known. If you're ready to take that next step, then we want to extend our welcome to you, as you find your place among others.

Serve with us

As followers of Jesus, we’re called to link arms and serve together. At Garden City, serving means caring for those both inside and outside our church family. We’re committed to everyone having a part to play and finding meaningful ways to serve each other, our city, and the world around us.

Give generously

As a church, we believe everything we have—even our finances—are a gift to us from God. The generosity of those who call us their church home, makes it possible to pursue the vision God has given us, helps us cover our ongoing overheads, and helps us to invest in the future develop of the church, as we look and plan ahead.
