Small acts of care, lasting impact! 🌿

Creation is a gift, and as followers of Jesus, we’re called to steward what we’ve been blessed with through intentional care.

Our Windsor Earth Team is one small way that we seek to play our part as a church — caring for our spaces, reducing waste, and looking after the world God has entrusted to us.

There are two ways you can get involved with our amazing Windsor Earth Team:

☕ Join our cup-washing roster — help us keep our coffee and communion cups in circulation and continue reducing our use of single-use cups.

🌱 Join us today at Centurion Reserve — we’re getting together at 10:45am for a Windsor Earth Team reserve tidy. Bring some gloves and a can-do attitude. Everyone is welcome!

Small, intentional acts of care can (and do!) make a difference. 🌿

Who or what has your allegiance?

This Sunday, guest preacher John Tucker takes us into 1 Kings 18 and the dramatic showdown on Mount Carmel, where Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal and calls God’s people back to wholehearted worship.

As we explore this powerful story, we’ll consider the things that compete for our allegiance today — and what it means to turn our hearts towards the living God.

It's going to be a great sermon. Come along and join us!

Mairangi Bay: 9am or 10.45am
Online: 9.30am

See you on Sunday!

What if being strong doesn’t mean doing it all on your own?

In last weeks Father’s Day message, guest speaker Christoph Zintl challenged us to rethink healthy masculinity and the pressure many men feel to be strong, stoic and self-sufficient.

Drawing from his experience as a prison chaplain and Jesus’ words in Matthew 22, Christoph reminded us that strength isn’t about carrying everything by ourselves. Healthy masculinity is shaped by courage, honour, self-control, vulnerability and, above all, relationship.

Sometimes we need to put on the armour of God. But sometimes, we need the courage to lay our armour down — allowing trusted people to see what’s really going on, to challenge us, encourage us and walk alongside us.

Because following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey.

Jesus invites us into a life of healing, grace and wholeness — not one we have to navigate alone. Find the courage to be known, the humility to walk alongside others, and the strength to follow Jesus together. 🫱🫲

We couldn’t do it without you! 💛

Every Sunday, and throughout the week, there are countless people behind the scenes who give their time, energy, skills and hearts to make church happen.

From welcoming at the door and serving coffee, to kids and youth leaders, worship and tech, life groups, prayer, pastoral care, events, set-up, pack-down and everything in between — our volunteers make so much of what we do possible.

But more than what you do, we’re grateful for the way you serve — generously, faithfully and often quietly, using what God has given you to bless others and help build a stronger community.

So today, we simply want to say THANK YOU! 🙌

Thank you for showing up.
Thank you for giving your time.
Thank you for making people feel welcome.
Thank you for serving when no one is watching.
Thank you for being part of what God is doing here at Windsor.

We’re incredibly grateful for every one of you. ❤️

This Father’s Day, Christoph Zintl invites us to rethink the lone-ranger ideal of masculinity and discover a healthier, stronger way of being men through Christ-like relationships.

Today we want to honour the men who have helped shape the lives of others — dads, stepdads, adoptive and foster dads, grandads and pops, uncles, mentors, coaches, and mates who have stepped up and shown what it means to be there for someone.

To the men who have sacrificed, provided, protected, encouraged, taught, challenged and championed — we see you, and we’re grateful for you!

But we also know that Father’s Day can be complicated. For those who have lost their dads, lost children, carry a strained relationship with a father or child, or have longed to be dads themselves — we see you too.

And perhaps that’s part of what makes today so meaningful. Whatever our experience of fatherhood has been — the joys, the challenges, the things we’re grateful for and the things we wish had been different — we can all find hope in the Father who never fails us. So today, we ultimately turn our eyes to our Heavenly Father — the perfect Father who knows us, loves us, cares for us, and calls us His own!

So, men, today is for you. And church, today is an opportunity for all of us to give thanks for the men who have shaped us.

Happy Father’s Day!

PS: we'd love to see you at church later this morning to honour and celebrate the men in our lives! 9am or 10.45am in person, or 9.30am online.

This Sunday we're SO excited to celebrate Father's Day, honouring the men who father, mentor, champion and walk alongside others!

We're delighted to welcome guest speaker Christoph Zintl as we rethink the lone-ranger ideal of masculinity and discover a stronger, healthier way to be men through Christ-like relationships.

We've even got your Father's Day lunch sorted, with gourmet hotdogs for sale in the cafe in-between services (10.15am - 10.45am). Plus there's gifts for the lads and a photobooth to capture your special memories.

Come on your own, bring a father figure or mentor, and join us for a wonderful morning, together!

See you at 9am or 10.45am 👋🏼

As we conclude this section of Luke's Gospel, we arrive with Jesus at the gates of Jerusalem and are confronted with the question that we've seen through every passage we've explored: Do we recognise who Jesus really is? Luke 19 reminds us that Jesus comes as King on His terms, not ours, and that our response to Him matters. While we live in the "until He comes" years, we are called to steward what He has entrusted to us, recognising the King who came, who weeps for those who miss Him, and who one day will come again in glory.

The King is coming. How will you respond? 👑

This Sunday, we arrive with Jesus at the gates of Jerusalem and face a question that runs through Luke’s Gospel: Do we recognise who Jesus really is?

Jesus comes as King — not on our terms, but His. And our response matters.

Join us as Pastor Grant Harris wraps up Part 2 of our King & Kingdom Come series, exploring what it means to recognise the King, faithfully steward what He’s entrusted to us, and live with hope until He comes again.

What if spiritual maturity isn’t needing Jesus less, but needing Him more?

Last Sunday Mikayla Claasen explored Luke 18, diving into what it means to approach Jesus with dependence rather than performance. Through the Pharisee and tax collector, the rich young ruler, and the blind man, we’re reminded that the Kingdom of God isn’t something we earn through effort—it’s something we receive through grace.

We can easily fall into the trap of thinking, “Jesus saved me by grace, but now the rest is up to me.” But grace doesn’t run out when our effort begins. It’s grace all the way down.

So where are you relying on your own strength right now?
Come to Jesus with empty hands. Receive his grace. And trust him for today.

The best kind of mornings are shared! 🍪🍰🥮

There’s something special about slowing down, sharing food and making time for one another. Tomorrow we're doing just that as we gather for our Shared Morning Tea — and we’d love you to be part of it!

Bring a plate of finger food to share, pull up a chair and stay for a while. Rally together your family, invite someone you’ve been meaning to connect with, and make room for someone new.

Because some of the best moments happen when we simply make time to be together.

🥐 Bring a plate
☕️ Share a cuppa
🫶 Stay for a while

Let’s make Sunday morning a little more shared.

What if needing God isn’t a weakness?

In Luke 18, Jesus turns our ideas about strength, success and spirituality upside down. The kingdom of God isn’t something we earn — it’s something we receive.

This Sunday, Mikayla Claasen will explore what it means to come to Jesus with open hands, and why we never outgrow our need for grace.

Come curious. Come as you are. Join us for church!
