Missions

Ever since our humble beginnings in 1938, Condell Park has faithfully supported missionaries on the home field and abroad. At present we are represented by missionaries in the suburbs of Sydney, the highlands of Papua New Guinea, the islands of Fiji, the war-torn Middle East and among the multitudes in India.

Short-term Mission Trips provide excellent opportunities for young (and older) people to experience the challenges of the mission field first hand.

SLAM

The acronym “SLAM” stands for “Sports Lights A Message.” It’s the name given to an outreach program that consists of local churches that play sports in prisons and juvenile detentions centres and focuses on presenting the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Sport is used as an opportunity to spend time with the inmates, to love them, and to share the message of hope from the Bible.

Our church runs a basketball team which usually makes ten correctional centre visits throughout the year. After playing basketball with the inmates, the Gospel is shared through a time of preaching & testimony and the distribution of Christian literature.

It is a great encouragement to see some inmates move from indifference and indignation on their first contact with the group to being attentive and asking questions on later visits. It is obvious that the Gospel message of God's unmerited love begins to resound with them and they want to learn more about Him.

Holiday Kids Club

When? July school holidays for children in K-6

In 2005 we were burdened to provide a school holiday program for children in our community. That was the beginning of our Holiday Kids Club.

Ever since then we have hosted a four-day evangelistic programme for primary aged children in the July School holidays. Our creative team goes to work transforming our church into an exciting environment for children to learn and grow. Our theme varies from year to year: Jungle Adventure, Buried Treasure, Under the Sea, Wild West, Big Freeze, Days of Knights, Adventure Island and Space Race. The programme includes colourful costumes, dramatic skits, great songs, thrilling games, Bible messages, wonderful crafts and delicious food. All these elements complement the theme and help us tell children the good news about Jesus.
