Overview of our Ministries

WEEKLY WORSHIP MEETINGS AND DISCIPLESHIP SMALL GROUPS

Church of Hope has a heart to see people being saved and becoming mature disciples. Every week Church of Hope runs Worship meetings to help encourage many of the more marginalised people in the City of Melbourne and western suburbs of Sydney to grow in their walk with the Lord. Worship and practical Bible Based messages are a key part of all of these meetings. Mid-Week leadership and discipleship groups are also held to help people to grow in their faith and to be equipped to become future small group leaders.

 

      
 

PRACTICALLY MINISTERING TO THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY

We provide free nutritious meals for the disadvantaged and homeless who attend our Saturday night Melbourne worship meetings and a free lunch for those who attend our Sunday worship meeting in Blacktown. In addition we also provide clothing and blankets to those who are in need as resources become available.

 

 

                 

ACTIVELY PROCLAIMING THE GOSPEL AND EQUIPPING OTHER CHURCHES AND CHRISTIANS TO EVANGELISE

We are active in evangelism and regularly go out to preach, hand out tracts, and talk to people about Jesus. These outreaches have resulted in many people being saved and coming into a relationship with Jesus Christ.

We also hold free evangelism classes from time to time, where the keys to effective gospel presentation are taught. After preparation and prayer, we then go out in small groups. Most people are surprised at how easy it is to share the gospel in public and quickly develop a taste for it, often moving into other forms of ministry as well.

STREET OUTREACHES

"Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind." (Luke 14:21)

On most Friday nights Pastor David Palmer from Church of Hope heads an outreach team on the steps of Flinders Street Station. During these outreaches people are encouraged to walk with the Lord and to become connected to a loving Bible Based church. 

In Sydney we hold open air street church meetings in Blacktown, Bankstown, Parramatta and George Street Sydney. We are now also doing one week missions trips to regional towns in NSW to take the gospel to the streets.

 

 

 

 

                  

 

EQUIPPING AND RESOURCING OVERSEAS PASTORS

We have a strong commitment to missionary work and regularly send teams to countries like India and Africa, to work with local pastors to conduct evangelistic crusades and to provide ministry training.

A key part of our missions vision is to run Pastors Workshops to help equip and resource pastors to run workshops for their own network of pastors. Since 2015 we have also been running by email a free 17 week Evangelism and Ministry Training Course to help equip and empower Christians and Pastors for the work of Ministry. We also provide assistance to orphans and widows when possible. To read more click here.
