kangaroo Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Anyone know of any "South African" Churches in or around Melbourne, Afrikaans or English?thanks!Hi SearchHave a look at Church Information - CityLife Also have a read through the Melbourne community section of the forum.CityLife is not a purely 'South African' church - I doubt whether you'd find that here in Melbourne - but I've been to CityLife (Manningham campus) and it's brilliant. Very friendly people and very meaningful service/'sermon'. The Manningham campus is close to Doncaster and Templestowe where lots of South African families live, so there are quite a few South Africans in the mix there.Another church I'd still like to 'try out' as well is Bayside Church as it's closer to where I live. I was at an Australian wedding about 3 months ago where the pastor/'dominee' was from Bayside Church (Cheltenham campus) and the refreshing, open-minded and progressive way in which the wedding was done/led convinced me to check out the church later on.PS: There are many more churches to choose from...there is literally something for everyone. I'd advise 'church-hopping' initially to find somewhere you feel comfortable personally, as this differs from person to person. ...Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
