Our Sunday services are a great opportunity to explore faith, worship with others, and get to know our church family.

what to expect

No matter your background, you’re welcome here. There’s no dress code or expectations - just come as you are. Our services include live worship, teaching from the Bible, and space for connection and prayer. Kids and youth head off partway through to groups designed just for them. After the service, stick around for refreshments and a chat - we’d love to get to know you.

frequently asked questions

What is the service like?
Each service begins with live worship led by a band. Around 20 minutes into the service, children head to their age-specific groups, with youth following around 10 minutes later. Later in the service, one of our leaders will preach from the Bible. We take communion together once a month and offer prayer ministry every week.
Where can I park?
There are several car parks within walking distance of The Hope Centre. Bus stops are also nearby.
Do I need to book or let you know I’m coming?
No need to book, but we’d love to know if you're coming - feel free to fill out our Connect form.
‍Can I bring my children?
Absolutely! We have safe, fun, age-specific groups for children and youth during the service.
‍What should I wear?
Come as you are - most people dress casually.
‍Is the building accessible?
Yes. We have baby-change facilities, hearing support, and spaces where you can watch the service on a screen.
‍Will I be asked to give money?
There’s no pressure to give. Giving is part of our worship for those who call Hope Church home.
‍Can I join online instead?
We don’t offer online services, as we believe church is best experienced in person, in community. While we’re not set up as an online church, we do occasionally provide access to services for those already part of the Hope Church family who can’t attend in person for a time. If that’s you, feel free to get in touch. Although we don't stream our services, you can catch up on previous sermons here.
