About Us
Christians following Jesus
To get in touch with God we teach and put into practice the simple and clear message of Jesus as it's taught in the Bible with nothing added and nothing left out! Sincere people reading God's Word will find God.
Jesus Christ said He would build "His church" (singular). The Bible shows us how this church came into being and that it was 'one church' composed of many congregations whose only real differences were location and local customs. We might say that Coffs Coast church of Christ is 'un-denominational' in the sense that we practise the New Testament concept of the church and the unity it had.
We are a group of simply committed christians who are living and working to grow the Lord's church at Coffs Harbour. Help us with your prayers, visiting or consider joining us for worship.
If you’d like to talk about this, and about your relationship with God, contact us. We’d love to help.
When I visit, what can I expect?
We’re friendly
and we’ll talk to you. We’ll hopefully not swarm you, but you’ll definitely be welcomed warmly.
Dress is casual, or smart casual
even by Australian standards, we’re pretty easy-going with dress code. You don’t have to buy a suit or wear a Sunday dress, although you’re most welcome to if that’s what you’d prefer to wear. You’ll find quite a wide spectrum of dress codes when you visit us, so we’re sure you’ll feel comfortable with whatever you choose to wear.
We like to start on time
We like to end on time too, so arriving a little early (just in case) is probably a wise idea. However, if you’re running late, simply step in, have a seat and jump straight in.
We welcome anyone, anytime they can make it – even if this means coming in halfway through or towards the end of the service.
We sing as a congregation. With enthusiasm.
Nothing like the unmatched timbre of the singing voice. We aim to sing to God and to one another as best as we can. Songs are easy to follow and sometimes they are projected on screen at the front during service. Songbooks are also available. Please don’t feel you have to sing along if you’re not comfortable doing so. Feel free to just read the words!
We remember Jesus’ resurrection weekly.
You might have heard of Communion or the Lord’s Supper. That’s when Christians break a piece of bread that has no yeast, and drink a portion of grape juice to remember a perfect man, sent from a perfect God, who was made a scapegoat for all the wrongdoing we’ve ever done and will do in future.
It’s an awe-inspiring moment that we welcome you to share with us. Please don’t feel obliged to join in; you’re welcome to observe quietly.
We take up a collection weekly
Please do not feel obligated in any way to contribute to our collection. Giving is not required of anyone. If you feel you want to contribute, feel free to do so. Rest assured that we never pry and we don’t keep tabs on who’s giving and who isn’t.
