We are ordinary people who live in Hawthorn, Kew, Richmond and other nearby suburbs in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
We take Jesus seriously in our lives and community — and have a lot of fun too!
For us, it's all about Jesus and the world he loves. Find out more about Jesus »

You may believe church isn't for you.
Could be you've had a rough time with "The Church". So have some of us.
Maybe you've heard people talk about a 'relationship with Jesus' - and wondered what does that even mean?
But what if you had a chance for a small taste of being literally an adopted son or daughter of God?
What if you found a church working together to create community that's not just for the people who show up on Sunday?
Normal people who are trying to 'do justly, love mercy and walk humbly' with Jesus? Even when we mess it up?
Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, maybe it is. But you might be surprised at how different church - and life! - can be when we put Jesus at the center, instead of ourselves.
So how do you check this out? Well one way is that we all meet up every Sunday around 10.30am.
Our gatherings are something like a (good) family gathering, with lots of music and laughter, time to talk and learn about Jesus and take life seriously, to hang out together and catch up on each other's lives, and usually to eat!
Around 60-80 people show up each week, of all ages and walks of life, and nobody cares how you dress, where you live, or what you earn!
Wherever you are in life, you'll be welcome amongst us. Get Connected »
