Our Mission

New Life Presbyterian Church exists to
reach every home in our community and beyond with the new life of Christ.

Our Values

The Gospel

We value the good news:

  • that Jesus Christ died for sins and was raised from the dead and that turning away from sin and believing in Him brings new life.
  • We are committed to declaring this good news regularly at church and spreading it in our community, our suburbs, our country and the world.
  • In loving God and loving others, the gospel is our top priority.

The Bible

We value the Bible: 

  • It is God’s inspired word.
  • We are committed to teaching it faithfully and systematically, in a clear and relevant way.
  • This enables us to know God better and thus transform our minds and change our hearts.

Worship

We value the worship of God:

  • We seek to magnify God, not ourselves, by responding in thanks to God’s kindness shown in Jesus Christ.
  • At church we express this with songs of praise using contemporary music, meaningful lyrics and involving the whole congregation
  • Outside church we express this with obedient living 24/7.

Prayer

We value prayer:

  • Talking to God is central to who we are as God’s people.
  • It is our regular practice to pray together as a church, in small groups and personally.
  • Prayer is the proper expression of dependence on God and faith in Jesus Christ.

Service

We value serving God: 

  • joyfully, sacrificially and humbly.
  • It is born out of love, gratitude and compassion.
  • We are committed to serving our community outside the church and serving in ministries within the church and wider denomination.

People

We value people of all ages and walks of life.

  • During the bible talk in our Sunday morning church service we provide a creche for pre-schoolers and age appropriate teaching for primary aged children.
  • Throughout the week we provide Growth Groups for people of all stages in life. 
  • We are committed to creating a safe church environment. Our ‘Safe Church’ policy ensures that the protection of children and the vulnerable is all-important and abuse or the potential for abuse will not be tolerated.

Community

We value the community of believers:

  • We are committed to meeting together regularly.
  • We do this to encourage one another in the faith.
  • We seek to love and care for one another and forgive each other

“I have come that you may have life and have it to the full”

FAQ

What does Presbyterian mean?

Basically it’s a form of governing the affairs of the church, where a team of leaders are elected by church members. The ancient Greek word Presbyteros literally means ‘elder’. These elders have spiritual oversight of the church.
