We are a small family of Christ's disciples in the beautiful region of Hardys Bay on the Bouddi Peninsula on the Central Coast of NSW. The emphasis in our name is on “community" – we are here for our local community, and we serve our community in a number of ways.
We meet every Sunday for worship at 9.30am. Members of our church family are rostered each Sunday to lead, pray, read God’s word and serve in other ways, as we encourage each other in worship. Visitors enjoy our friendly and authentic fellowship.
Notice about our pastor & services in 2026
Our pastor, Stephen Hinks, has recently retired, and our church family is now searching for our next leader.
Services are being held as usual. During February, some of our church family are sharing their faith journey. From March, a range of visiting preachers will teach us from God’s Word - Stephen Hinks, who is still a member of our church family, will be included.
For Ladies: our monthly meeting to focus on time with God, Sensible Shoes, is held on first Saturday of every month at HBCC from 9-11am.
Our recent series The God Conversation - Who wants to believe in a God like that? concluded on Sunday 7 December.
