Church@5
5pm Sundays
At our evening service we sing contemporary and up-beat songs, pray together and hear the same Bible teaching as the morning services. Many young adults, teenagers, uni-students and shift-workers come along to this service, as well as people of all ages who just prefer to be part of church in the evening. Everyone is welcome!
Rather than leave straight after the service, we like to hang around and chat over supper. This is a great opportunity to catch up and get to know each other better. Barista coffees and other drinks are also available for purchase in our cafe.
Please note: there is no Creche or Kids/Teen Church during Church@5

Safe & secure
We take the safety of our youth seriously. All our youth leaders are committed members of The Lakes who have their Working With Children Checks and have had Safe Ministry training.
Our pastoral leaders and staff are employed on their acceptance of and adherence to the Anglican Church of Australia’s “Faithfulness in Service” document which can be downloaded via the button below.
“Going to Salt camp was an amazing experience. Spending time with Christian friends that care about you, in Gods wonderful creation, from the beautiful land to the stars and moon. It was great opportunity to talk about things that Christians believe, ask questions and discuss them around the campfire. We definitely grew in our faith and relationship with one another. Can’t wait for next year!!!”

“My teens have had the privilege of being led by young adults who love God and love our teens. Their guidance has been invaluable for them.”
