Church Life
I'm new here
If you're new at NEAC we'd love to meet you (if we haven't already). Coming along to church for the first time might not feel like an easy thing to do. We want to help you feel welcomed by the first person you meet. We'd also love to share with you some of the things happening at church. If you'd like to know more, speak to anyone of the NEAC ministry staff or share your details with us here.

Prayer
Join us at 12.30pm on Wednesdays for a moment of refreshment from the the Lord. Every week at this time, there will be a 20-30 minute prayer meeting over Zoom. Feel free to join for a short moment of prayer to break up your day.
If you can’t join us, you can even message in a prayer point (link below) and we will pray for you in your absence. You could even call in if you’re particuarly fatigued of video chats. (+61370182005,,81443262649# Australia)

Small groups
At NEAC we are committed to creating spaces where we can encourage, experience and express the “one another” life of Christian community outside Sunday services. Each week in Small Groups we hope to do this by talking with each other, praying together and looking at God’s word.

Giving
As a church, we recognise that everything we have and are is from and for God. We seek to support the preaching of the good news of Jesus here in Erskineville & Newtown and around the world. To this end, we encourage our regular members to give as they are able to support the growth of God’s kingdom.
Electronic giving
We recommend electronic transfers to enable giving to be regular and anonymous. You can also give via credit card.
GIVING DETAILSMissionaries
By donating to the ministry of NEAC you are also supporting our missionary partners. You can also give to them directly here.

At NEAC we think Jesus gets to our desk Monday morning before we do. He is not just interested in our work, he is Lord over it. If Jesus’ grace changes everything, how does it alter our everyday work stresses? The communication breakdown in our office emails? Our career questions and longings?
The gospel of Jesus Christ reveals the nature of our hearts, our world and God’s kingdom. In light of the gospel our whole vision of work changes. Our prayer is that God would release many people to use the precious gifts and time he has given them to work in Jesus’ name.

Workplace lectures
Twice a year, we run a lecture to help us contemplate what it looks like for us to be captivated by Jesus in our working life.
VIDEOSCitizens
Citizens is a year-long journey a group of workers takes together to discover how the gospel changes them and their work.

God is the author of salvation and is continually at work in the world around us in infinite ways. But he is also the author of your own personal story of faith. In 1 Thessalonians, we get a glimpse of the story that God wrote in the life of one young, small and struggling church.
As we study this book together, it is a great time to reflect on our own stories of faith - past, present and future. To this end, we are releasing a devotional journal to help you stop and contemplate the story that God is writing in your life. Occasionally, we get a chance to consider these things when we share how we became a Christian with someone. However, God is always at work in our lives, and is writing our story each and every day.
Sermon series
Church of the Living God
As we head towards a time of gathering again as God's people, we have all types of longings about meeting again. We have been doing so many things online during this strange season!
All this raises questions of what exactly we are doing when we gather to do church. We're going to spend a few weeks considering what the Triune God is doing as he gathers his people every week.
We will see that we are gathered for Jesus' glory, as one new humanity, as children of a heavenly father and as a special possession for declaring his honour and praise. May God give us a fresh vision for what he is doing among us before the great day when we will gather with all God's people for his glory alone.
