INDONESIA
Through our churches partnership with Ps Paulus Wiratno of DiscipleMaker & Mercy Indonesia we have together, with great love & sacrifice seen the construction of our Project Lily orphanage. This home accommodates 30 children and sponsorship from our church family provides these kids with education, food & health care.
Each year we take teams across to visit our orphanage in West Timor where we have involvement in running children’s programmes, leadership training, radio ministry and medical clinics.
RUSSIA
Each July we partner with Kids Outreach International and take a missions team into Siberia in Russia where we stay in children’s summer camps and share with unsaved children the good news of the gospel. Each year we reach hundreds of children and give away hundreds of bibles through this frontline ministry of reaching our world with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
HIGH SCHOOLS
As a church we are passionate about reaching our community and one of the ways in which we do this is through our high school programmes. Each week we take our shine & strength programme into local schools and see young people impacted by a positive message of self worth and value.
Shine teaches girls the principles of worth, strength & purpose and the strength programme aims to impart to young men the values of significance, strength & purpose.
To complement these programmes we also run a once a month breakfast programme in Erina High School, providing a free breaky while building relationship and connections with young people in our local community.
COUNSELLING
Coastlife Assist offers a professional counselling service. We have two fully qualified counsellors available by appointment. Our counsellors specialise in mental health, depression, anxiety, grief & loss as well as in relationship and family counselling. Appointments can be arranged by phoning our church office during business hours.
PROEJCT ASSIST
As a church we desire to make an impact in our community, one way we are doing this is by providing practical assistance to those in need in our local area.
Project Assist seeks to first meet practical needs by sending out our Assist teams who give help with home maintenance, gardening and home makeovers. This is just one way that we are truly making a real difference in the lives of people in our local community.
CAREFORCE PROGRAMS
Coastlife Assist offers a range of courses to our church family and community to equip, strengthen & grow people in a range of life skills. These courses aim to bring health and wholeness to people at any level of their relationship with God from the totally unchurched to those growing in their faith. The skills covered assist people in reaching their full potential and give tools for overcoming the hurdles of life.

CARS FOR CAUSES
Cars for Causes is an annual local community project where the church partners with local businesses to put cars in the hands of people in need. Last year this amazing project saw 5 cars given away to single mums who were in need of a helping hand. Local T.V, newspaper & radio came on board and raised the profile of this great project which goes a long way in making a real difference in the lives of people in our community.
CHAPLAINCY
This year we are training, equipping and sending a team of chaplains to pastor our local community reaching into hospitals, nursing homes & schools.
Chaplaincy is a great way that we can reach our local community as we come alongside & support people through life.
