Our Vision
Our mission is to build Christ’s church by prayerfully proclaiming God’s Word.
We live in such a beautiful part of the world, but many people don’t know the One who made it!
Everyone matters.
There are about 25,000 precious souls living within 25 minutes drive of Forster, and every single one of them matters to God!
We want to help as many of them meet Jesus Christ as we can - that’s why our church is accessible to everyday people with no church background, and it’s why we provide lots of opportunities for new people to hear the good news of the gospel.
We want to help people grow to spiritual maturity - that’s why we teach our way through the bible and encourage people to wholeheartedly follow Jesus.
We want to help people get connected and feel part of the community - that’s why we love eating food together and hanging out.
We want to help people learn how to serve one another with their gifts & abilities - that’s why we provide opportunities for everyone to discover their strengths and to get involved.
The next generation matters.
There are roughly 2000 young families, 1600 primary school students and 1600 high school students in our region.
We’re committed to providing quality programs for kids & youth; and to training up the next generation of Christian leaders.
New churches reach new people.
In 2009 we launched CoastEC at Forster with a desire to start more new churches in our region.
In 2020, we started a new church in Taree called Manning Bible Church.
Lord willing, in the coming years we’ll start more congregations up at Hallidays and down at Smiths Lake or Palms.
We’re also working with other churches in our network to plant more churches up the coast.
