AGM
Once a year (Oct)

As we conclude our year it is really important to formally report on the church activities, finances and future.  Those who are formally members of the church will receive a ballot to elect a board of management for the next year.  All  are welcome at the AGM, we encourage as many as possibly can to attend.

Alpha
Alpha is a very popular course used in many countries.  Here in New Lynn we have run the course six times for various groups.

Alpha is a great way to find answers to all those nagging questions of guilt, suffering and how to understand the Christian faith. 
This is not a Bible study but it will help you know your Bible.
This is not a prayer group but it will help you pray.
This is not a discipleship course but it will help you follow the Lord. 
If you have not been to Alpha, contact the Pastor and let him know you are interested.

Requests for assistance are confidential.

If you would like to donate items please leave them beside the information table at any time.  Thanks for caring enough to consider this unseen but vital link to the community

Work & Witness
Over recent years the Seabrook Avenue Church has been deeply involved in 4 Work & Witness projects. Two have been based in Papua New Guinea, one in Fiji and most recently Tonga. People of varying skills register to travel to foreign destinations where they are involved in one or two week projects. Projects vary from building to medical projects. Every team returns thoroughly enriched by the experience and the sense of satisfaction in helping beyond our borders.
