Knowing Jesus. Loving People Attend online service

Welcome!

Thanks for visiting! We are a warm and friendly community, welcoming people of all ages, cultures and backgrounds.

Our motto is ‘Knowing Jesus. Loving People’. We want to know God better through Jesus: ‘I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord’ (Philippians 3:8). We want to love each other and we want to love all people: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself’ (Mark 12:31).

We believe in one God and in the unity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. We believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, and that our eternal hope is based on the life, death and resurrection of God’s son, Jesus Christ.

As a church we seek to follow Jesus as his disciples and to proclaim his good news of salvation to all people.

Kids and families

Our Sunday Kids Ministry programs focus on the Bible and is available weekly. We want our kids to see God’s unfolding story of his love for them, ultimately through the person and work of Jesus. We aim to communicate this in a fun, meaningful and engaging way to the children.

On Sundays at 10am; our kids’ teams run a variety of children’s programs (toddlers to 6th grade) so that they can enjoy learning about God in a safe, fun and caring environment. Ask the welcoming team at the door when you arrive and they’ll direct you to the appropriate program for your children.

WSCCC has loads of high schoolers who love Jesus, love the Bible and love how the Gospel changes lives. Each week during the school term we have two youth groups where we meet to have fun and study the Bible together.

Our Pastors

Morgan Powell

Morgan Powell

Pastor

Morgan Powell brings a local and international flavour to our ministry team at WSCCC. Although he grew up and went to school in Bexley, in Sydney’s south, he has lived in East Africa, Los Angeles, and Jackson Hole. His travels have taken him from Morocco to Mexico.

Over 25 years ago, Morgan left accounting to go into full time Christian ministry. Morgan has served as a pastor, church planter, youth minister, teacher, and missions director in a variety of places such as Beverly Hills, West Pennant Hills in Australia; and Ecuador and Peru in South America. As a result, Morgan no longer knows which soccer team to support.

Happiness is a frame of mind. Morgan is equally happy with instant International Roast or a cold pour single origin coffee; a Mexican burrito or a Shanghai Xia Long Bao. As a result, Morgan has no idea what to order at Chatime. You’ll have to order for him.

But Morgan is single-minded when it comes to pastoral ministry. He brings his wisdom, life-experience, and pastoral know-how to care, grow, and strengthen us at WSCCC.

Morgan is married to Anna, who attended youth group and was a youth group leader at WSCCC back in the day. They are blessed with two resilient daughters who can survive 72 hour plane trips.

Andrew Bardsley

Andrew Bardsley

Pastor

On the outside, Andrew looks like a regular north coast (Ballina!) surfie.  But on the inside, Andrew is a nerdy academic.  He completed a Master of Divinity (at Sydney Missionary and Bible College) and Master of Arts Theology (at Christ College), and loves to read and research.

Andrew also has a BA and DipEd and was a high school visual arts teacher. He loves using his creativity to come up with imaginative ways to explain God’s amazing message of freedom in the Bible and to help people know Christ and grow in Christ by digging deep into the treasure of God’s word.

Andrew is married to Krissie, and they have three children.  In his spare time, Andrew enjoys surfing, art, and exploring the great outdoors with his family.
