We are part of an interdependent network of healthy, mission-shaped communities of fresh hope – Churches of Christ in NSW. We join with over 100 communities of faith to form this network.
Telopea Church of Christ, also known as Telopea Christian Centre is a church that exists for people to know and enjoy God, and we want to reach people far from God and show them how to live a deeply satisfying life in Jesus, with others, in the world they live.
Mission
To Make, Mature and Multiply Disciples on Mission
We believe the
following statements reflect who we are
- The Bible is the inerrant word of God inspired by the Holy Spirit. It is our only creed and guide
- We believe in the Trinity – the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
- The Lord Jesus is the only head of the Church
- We believe we are saved to eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ
- We believe in the resurrection of Christ and that He will come again
- We practise baptism by water immersion
- We celebrate the Lord’s Supper on a weekly basis and on other times when we meet together
Flowing from the above our Core Values are
LORDSHIP OF CHRIST
Christ is actively working to bring all things in and under His authority. He is the Head of the church and we live in obedience to Him.
GOD’S
LOVE
Having been submerged into the union of the fellowship of Father, Son and Holy Spirit, our life together is experienced in God’s love.
LEADERSHIP
In living healthy spiritual leadership we seek to influence healthy spiritual individuals, families and churches to be spiritually healthy.
PEOPLE
Because people are the focus of God’s redemptive purpose, we seek to build relationship with Him and each other, bringing freedom and life to the full.
GROWTH
We will seek to disciple all people, enabling them to live authentic Christ formed lives, growing into all that He has promised.
PRAYER
Allows us to be intimately connected with God and to actively participate in His Kingdom and rule.
MISSION
We are blessed to be a blessing to our community, our nation and to people wherever God takes us in the world. This extends us into adventure beyond what we find comfortable.
