What to expect

Park Road Anglican Church is all about making Jesus as accessible as possible to as many people as possible. Which is what churches are meant to do, right? We strive to be a little different at Park Road: you can expect us to take the Bible seriously, but not take ourselves too seriously. Park Road isn’t a church where we expect you to wear a hat and your Sunday best, far from it.

We work hard on our preaching and our music ministry because we want church to be exciting for everyone who comes along. The first step in getting started at Park Road is discovering the service best for you.

Sunday Meetings

8am

Traditional Anglican Prayer Book Service

Continuing the rich tradition of the Anglican Prayer Book (1978 Australian Edition), this service is structured, quiet, yet friendly.

It is designed to feel ‘at home’ for people who have grown up with an Anglican Prayer Book. It is ‘liturgical’ in style, which means we read things together like a creed (a statement of belief) or a prayer (like the Lord’s Prayer). The words of the statements are found in the Prayer Book, which we hand out at the door.

Stay and enjoy morning tea with us after the service.

10am

Family Service (with children’s program)

This service is contemporary and relaxed, with a special focus on the needs of families with kids from créche to year 6. We meet to sing, to pray, to hear God’s word opened and explained.

The kids head out to a kids program shortly after the meeting begins, where the Bible is brought to life through a mix of activities. Kids church at Park Road Anglican is fun, noisy and even messy!

We enjoy morning tea each week after the meeting, and lunch together as a congregation once a month.

5pm

Night Church

Night Church is a modern style service. The perfect service for youth, young adults, and those with teenage kids – but really, a pretty wide range of ages find this suits their style – it’s loud and we like to enjoy ourselves. If that sounds like a church you’d like to be part of, please come along and have a look!

Like our other Sunday meetings, the focus is always on Jesus and his word. We hear from the Bible, we pray together, and we sing together.

During term time we have dinner after the service.

Plan a Wedding, Baptism or Funeral

At Park Road Anglican we welcome the baptism of babies of committed christian parents, or teenagers or adults who have become christians more recently, and the many couples who choose to celebrate their wedding at our heritage church.

For many families, Park Road is the place they choose to celebrate the life of a loved one through a funeral or memorial service. Please email or call to discuss your needs.

Making Park Road Home

If you’ve been attending Park Road for a little while, have been enjoying our Sunday sermons and gatherings, we’d love to host you at one of our ‘Making Park Road Home’ events.

It’s your opportunity to meet a few people in a casual and stress-free environment, where you are able to ask questions about life at Park Road, connect with our church community and begin to find your place. The next Making Park Road Home dates are in our events section, as well as announced regularly at church.

Community Groups

Many people at Park Road are part of a community group—a gathering of friends that meet regularly to grow spiritually and walk alongside one another in good times and bad.

To join a community group, connect with one of our ministry leaders – youth, young adults, men, women or seniors – and we will help find the best group for you.
