What to Expect
A BIG WELCOME
We want you to feel welcome. Come as you are and wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Our gatherings are informal and normally last just over an an hour. We usually begin with a time of worship, where we sing songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. You may also hear different people sharing a prayer, a bible reading, a word of encouragement, or a testimony.
GOD’S PRESENCE
We can't change lives but Jesus can. Jesus said that whenever we gather in His name, He would be present in our midst. We celebrate His presence by sharing Communion together, and everyone is warmly welcome to participate. God's presence brings joy, healing, hope and life. Whenever we gather in His name, to worship the Creator of the universe, we expect to be changed by Him.
A GOSPEL MESSAGE
Most of our Sunday gatherings include a short gospel message. Our primary Bible teaching series are delivered and discussed in our small group communities that meet throughout the week.
A GREAT WELCOME FOR KIDS!
We love to encourage families to worship together with their children. We have a range of age-appropriate activities available to help parents and carers. Please select the appropriate location on our website to find out more.
LOVE
We enthusiastically welcome everyone to worship, pray, learn, and encounter God with us. We love and embrace the rich diversity of God’s people when we gather together, regardless of belief, sexual orientation, or gender. Young, old, rich, poor, straight, gay, queer, different ethnicities and different capabilities:
However you understand yourself and your place in the world, we want you to know that you are welcome!
A DISCIPLESHIP JOURNEY TOGETHER
When, and if, someone decides to become a part of the New Frontiers church family, we encourage them to enter into the accountability and vulnerability of shared lives, where we are invited to take up our crosses and follow Jesus together. This includes obedience to the historic Biblical teachings about singleness, marriage, sexual expression, and gender.
We believe that through the journey of discipleship, we are called to bring all aspects of our lives into submission to Jesus. We want to be a welcoming refuge, creating space for discipleship to take place in a warm, gracious, loving, and accountable community.
