2026 Vision: To Know Him and Make Him Known
This year, our vision is to know God and to make Him known. For many of us, “knowing God” can often be equated to simply knowing facts about Him. However, when the Bible speaks about knowing God, it describes seeing Him correctly so that it elicits a response of delight and awe. The more we understand His character and His qualities, the more we begin to marvel at what He has done for us through His Son. To help us in this pursuit, we have started a six-week series on the Nicene Creed. This historic statement of belief has served the church for centuries by clarifying exactly who God is, helping His people to savor Him rightly. Over the coming weeks, we invite you to pray that you would savor God in all His fullness as we strive to know Him more deeply together.

Sunday, 1st March: Preparations & Opportunities Pre-AGM Discussion To help us prepare for the official meeting on the 8th, we will be holding a Pre-AGM session. This is a vital time for open discussion on key issues and priorities, allowing us to enter the official meeting with clarity and shared understanding.

- 1:00pm – Annual General Meeting: Following lunch, we will meet in the Chapel for our AGM to hear ministry updates and participate in the stewardship of our church.
Preparing in Prayer We believe that our plans only succeed when they are rooted in prayer. We invite you to join leadership and fellow members to seek God’s wisdom at any of our open prayer meetings:
- Wednesday, 4th March @ 1:30pm (English)
- Saturday, 7th March @ 3:00pm (Cantonese)
9:30am English Service Roundtable Meeting | 1st March 11:00am As we consider the missional opportunities available while we meet at Hurstville Public School, we want to create a space to discuss how we can capitalize on the unique context in front of us. Please join us for a roundtable meeting at 11:00am to think through how we can make Jesus known in our local community.
New to the Family? Join “The Bridge”
If you’ve recently moved into the area or have started making this your home church after moving from another congregation, we’d love to officially welcome you.
We know that transitioning to a new church can feel a bit like being the “new kid at school,” even if you’ve been a Christian for years. The Bridge is a casual, short-term group designed specifically for you to get to know our Senior Minister, hear the heart and vision of our church, and connect with others who are also new to the pews.
- When: Friday evenings at 6:00 PM(the first meeting will be this coming Friday, 13 February, 2026).
- Where: Meet at the church foyer
- The Plan: We’ll gather briefly, then head out to a local restaurant for dinner together.
- Duration: We’ll have you wrapped up and ready for your weekend by 7:30 PM.
Before you jump into a permanent small group, come spend a few Friday nights with us. It’s the easiest way to move from “visiting” to “belonging.”
Growing Together: Discipleship Group update

Group leaders will get back to you shortly with more details regarding times and locations.
