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.

Morning Prayer
NEAC will be having a weekly Morning Prayer Service on Tuesdays at 7:30am in the St Stephen’s Church building.
It will be a chance to begin the day with God’s word and by praying for the world, our church, and one another. It will finish before 8am so we hope it will work for some who are on the way to work or getting going for the day.
Morning Prayer begins on Tuesday 23 February.
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.

Our theme for Christmas at NEAC this year is 'A weary world rejoices'; a very appropriate thought for Christmas 2020.
From Monday 7 December, we will be releasing a series of Advent Devotions, reflecting on the lyrics from O Holy Night alongside passages from the Bible. This is series will be a collaboration of several members of our church. Our hope is that this series will help people prepare their hearts for celebrating Jesus' coming, in what has been a tiring year.

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.

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.
