"Where You Belong"

“Papsda” is a friendly, vibrant church made up of over 700 people from all sorts of backgrounds. We are here to show Auckland City the difference that a friendship with Jesus Christ can make. As you’ll see in this information booklet, we have various ministries for all kinds of people. And of course, we’d love for you to get involved in what’s happening here at Papsda.

Through the teaching of God’s Word, worshipping together, connecting with others and serving together, we aim to make Papsda a community where you’ll have many opportunities to build an exciting, personal relationship with God.

We live in a world that is constantly changing and in conflict. Papsda aims to bring the constant ever-lasting love of Jesus to the world in a compelling and relevant way.

Thank you for coming. It will be great getting to know you and seeing you around the place some more. We love our church family and hope that you’ll be blessed by your time with us. Most of all, it’s our prayer that you experience a life-changing relationship with Jesus.

God bless,

Stephen & Leanne Davies
Lead Pastors

Our Mission

"Growing inward, outward and upward, together in Jesus."

Growing inward: We will be a community that grows in spiritual maturity.

Outward: We will be a body of believers that serve one another. We’ll use our gifts, time and resources in building up the church and will reach out with the gospel message to impact Auckland City and beyond.

Upward: We will be a community that honours God with our lives - that overflows in worship of God for all He’s done, is doing and is going to do.

Together: In a world that is becoming increasingly isolated, we will be a community that loves, serves and encourages one another.

In Jesus: It’s all about Jesus! He is at the centre of everything.
