As a church, our vision is to see thousands of people living in our region respond to the gospel with faith and repentance, and to grow to maturity as followers of Jesus.

From time to time we gather our members to review our efforts, and share ideas about how we can more effectively pursue our vision.

Come along and 'Dream and Scheme' with us for the coming year!

Baptism is a beautiful symbol of what God has done in the lives of those who have trusted in
Christ.

Come and celebrate with us as we rejoice in the washing away of sin, and the new life we have in Jesus.

Sunday 25th August 2:15pm at the Tanks

We also hold more Baptisms later in the year on the 3 November.

Maybe next year is the year you deepen your faith and knowledge of God's Word in ways you've never done before? A year to push yourself spiritually and become even more effective in serving God's people. A year to take a breath before the next wave comes. Our Gospel Apprenticeship Program could be the very thing God has been leading you to.

If you are keen (or know anyone who is!) to find out more about CoastEC's GAP Program for 2025 and beyond, then come along to the Church Office (1/42 Wharf St, Forster) at 1pm or 7pm on Sunday, 18th August.

One of the crucial keys to reading the Bible is to know how it all fits together. Come and check out the flow of what God was doing through history as we see His salvation timeline unfold. If you know nothing about the Bible, then this will be crazy helpful, or if you read your Bible regularly but often feel like you're getting lost in the woods, then this is a night for you. There'll also be plenty of chances to ask questions as we make our way through the content.'

All free - just need to rego that you're coming. :)

Cancer is the leading cause of death in Australia. Most of us know someone who's been impacted by it, and sadly not everyone gets better from a cancer diagnosis.

Dave McDonald was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. In this book he writes: "I knew people who’d had cancer. I’d visited people at their bedsides and watched them waste away. I’d witnessed the brutality of the treatments. I’d prayed with people and seen some recover, but I’d seen others die. I’d lost friends and relatives to this cruel and indiscriminate disease. I’d conducted funerals and wept with those who mourned. I thought I knew something about cancer, but I couldn’t appreciate the multiple layers of pain and loss it creates until I began to experience these things myself."

Come and hear Dave be interviewed by Steve Begbie (Oncologist). He'll be sharing his own journey and what gives him strength and optimism as he looks to the future.

Bring your friends and family who need to hear a word of hope.

At Coast, we believe marriage is a fantastic gift from God and something to celebrate and cherish. We also know that good, healthy marriages are the result of lots of hard work from both husband and wife. 

We’d love to invite you to 5 different sessions on Saturday mornings spread out over 5 months. 

You don't have to commit to all 5 sessions (although that would be my recommendation if it works for your household rhythm); you can just pick and choose which ones would be most helpful for whichever season your marriage is in. 

We'd come together, watch and engage with the course content - giving time for you and your spouse to discuss/plan/pray it through and then head off home for the rest of your Saturday. 

Golden times!

Details

Time: 9-11am at the Church Office (1/42 Wharf St, Forster)

When: 

• 3rd Feb = Session 1 - God's design for your marriage.

• 2nd March = Session 2 - What damages our connectedness in marriage?

• 6th April = Session 3 - Building on the positives - friendship and communication.

• 11th May = Session 4 - Building on the positives - sex and spirituality.

• 1st June = Session 5 - Managing conflict gently. 

Cost: Whether you attend just one session or all five, it costs $25 per couple.

* Please note if you have babies/little kids, then we won't be providing a creche/child-minding service. Hopefully, it being just 2 hours means it's easier to find someone to look after your little one/s. 

If you are legitimately stuck and don't have anyone who could do this, then I can give you some suggestions of Safe Ministry-approved people at Coast who could be an option. 

We reckon this is going to be super helpful for all those at Coast - whether you've been married a few months or many decades, whether your marriage is healthy or whether you'd like to grow stronger in certain areas, then we'd love you to come to some or all of the above sessions. 

How to rego - click here BEFORE the 21st of January.

On Sunday 26th May we're having a Sunday Roast! 

This is basically a chance to get together with some other people from church for a cruisy meal and to enjoy some fellowship. It's a sweet way to make some new friends too.

Let us know if you can host, or want to attend (and if you'd prefer lunch or dinner) and we'll be in touch to let you know where you'll be dining, and what you can bring to share.

Sign Up to HERE!
