Welcome

As one of the many churches in Bendigo, we are a community of Christians of all ages, reformed and evangelical in our theology and practise, part of the Presbyterian Church of Victoria, and therefore the Presbyterian Church of Australia.

As a reformed and evangelical church, we are also connected in with The Gospel Coalition Australia.

We meet at 10:30am every Sunday  (9:30am on Good Friday and Christmas Day) on the corner of Forest and MacKenzie Streets, Bendigo. You can also catch us on 105.1 Life FM, each Sunday at 9am.

We confess faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and rejoice in the salvation He freely gives His people by His grace. In response to God’s goodness in this way, we seek to love God in return and seek to share what we have come to know with the people of Bendigo and surrounds.

Are you searching for more about this salvation, what it means to be a Christian or what is so good about the good news of the gospel of the Lord Jesus? We’d love to meet you and answer any questions you have. Or maybe you have something you’d like us to pray about? Why not contact us and let us know?

Together with Eaglehawk PC and Reforming, Bendigo East PC, we form the three Presbyterian ‘sister’ churches in Bendigo.

Report on our 2026 Annual Congregational Meeting…

Philip

Our 2026 Annual (General) Congregational Meeting was held after our worship today. There’s nothing unusual to report, just the usual reception and adoption of reports – including the financial statement for the 25/26 financial year and the budget for the 26/27 financial year – with the exception of one thing. Special mention was made of the contribution to the church by our, now retired, honorary Treasurer, Vic Ansell.

The following motion was carried with applause; ‘that the former Treasurer, Vic Ansell, be thanked for his excellent, reliable, conscientious and faithful service to God and this church over the last 4 years.’ Thank you Vic! ‘Well done, good and faithful servant!’

‘The gathering’ (Hebrews 10:24-25, Ryan Smith)

AudioPhilip

In this message, Ryan Smith take us to Hebrews 10:24-25, pointing out that the Christian life is not an individual thing, it’s a communal thing. God is calling a people who are His. A people who don’t give up meeting together, but rather gather, in order to encourage one another and spur one another on to love and good deeds. This is the biblical picture of the local church, where each and every member plays a part in encouraging one another and all the more in light of the coming return of the Lord Jesus.
