Young Adults
Connect Young Adults (ages 18-30ish) gather every Tuesday night from 6:30pm-8:30pm at Connect. Our focus is seeking to know Jesus more, to become more like Him, and to encourage one another on the journey. We catch up over dinner together, chat about life, then read and discuss Scripture together and reflect on how He is at work in our lives.
Connect Groups
Connect has a number of small groups gathering at different places at different times. After becoming part of our church family, you’re very welcome to join one of our small groups to enjoy extended fellowship with others and go deeper in your faith journey.
Kids Connect
Our Kids Connect ministry (ages 3-11) meet every Sunday morning during the school term. After joining in for a time of worship during our service, the kids usually head out for games, activities and spiritual input until the main service concludes.
Wanderers
Our Wanderers ministry (ages 50+) meets on the 3rd Tuesday of every month at Connect from 10am. They enjoy morning tea, play games and trivia together, have a short devotion, and sometimes venture down to the Shorncliffe waterfront for fish and chips!
ConnectCare Cafe
Every Thursday morning between 9am and 11am, ConnectCare Café is on at Connect. This is a great time to meet folks in our community and church around a free morning tea. There is also opportunity to pick up a food hamper for those who need a helping hand. On the 1st Thursday of every month, there’s also a free community BBQ at the same time!
Sanctuary
Every Wednesday night from 7pm to 9pm upstairs at Connect, our Sanctuary space is open. This is a time and place to retreat, be still, pray, read Scripture, reflect, and more. We gather in community but spend most of our time at Sanctuary seeking Jesus in solitude.
Blokes and Burgers
Blokes and Burgers come together on the 3rd Monday of every month at Jon’s place. It usually runs from 6pm-8pm. They enjoy burgers, chat about life, encourage one another, and sometimes hear the story of one of the blokes too! Reach out to us if you’d like to join us.
Youth Group
Connect Youth Group hang every Friday night of the school term from 6:30pm to 9:30pm at Connect. The total cost for entry and dinner/dessert is $6. A typical night would see hang time, big games, dinner, a short message, and breaking up into small groups. Keep an eye out for the calendar for each term to keep up with what’s happening at Connect Youth Group!
Missions
Connect supports several missionary families and ministries all around the world each year. We also raise funds for additional ministries and charities through morning tea donations on Sunday mornings. We believe that God is at work amongst us locally and all around us globally. Our hope and prayer is that we would be a generous church to God’s world all around us!
At Connect, we believe life was never meant to be lived alone. We facilitate a variety of ministries that accommodate varying seasons, ages and needs.
