CHURCH INFORMATION
Our faith is expressed in the two Statements of Faiths. One expresses the content of our faith (Reformed faith) and the other, our commitment to sharing the gospel with others (Evangelical faith). As part of the International Reformed Evangelical Church founded by Rev. Dr. Stephen Tong, we desire to be faithful to the Word of God. Hence, our worship service is centered on a careful exposition of the Word of God.
MISSION
Our desire is each of us might become disciples rooted in Christ, growing in His Word and sharing the love, peace, and joy that Christ has first given to us through His suffering on the cross. We aim to build a strong community and fellowships and impact the rest of the world through our faith.
Our Sunday Service in Bahasa Indonesia is held at 9:30am and our English service is held at 12:30pm on the ground floor of our church building (552-558 City Rd., South Melbourne).
