Tokai Community Church

Welcome

Together, we serve to know Christ and to make Christ known

We're committed to Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, and to the Bible as the Word of God. Everything we do aims at applying the lordship of Jesus to everyday living, encouraging fellowship with one another, and introducing Jesus to people who don't yet know Him.

75–90 minA whole service

What happens

A fairly traditional shape, and nothing you'll be put on the spot for

We sit in auditorium-style seating. A few people lead from the stage — praying, reading the Bible, introducing songs — and a music team leads the singing. About halfway through, one of our pastors preaches from the Bible for around half an hour.

A Bible helps but isn't essential; an app on your phone works just as well.

Everything a first-timer asks

Families

Every age has somewhere to belong on a Sunday

We want children to come to know Jesus, to live for Him, and to share Him with those around them. At 10am everyone starts together, then children up to Grade 10 head to their age groups. Parents of babies under one can sit in the Baby Room and still see and hear the service.

Where the Bible meets your ordinary week — where you can be known and loved, pray and be prayed for. Groups vary in shape, size and venue across the southern suburbs.

What we believe

What we believe shapes how we behave

TCC is a constituent church of REACH SA — Reformed, Evangelical, Anglican. Autonomous, with our own constitution, in fellowship with like-minded churches. Our convictions work out in five objectives.

Magnification

Adoring, praising and thanking God in all things, especially when we gather.

Membership

Everyone finding connection, community and care within God's family.

Maturity

Knowing God deeply and making gospel-driven decisions in all of life.

Ministry

Sacrificially serving one another, formally and informally.

Mission

More people hearing the gospel for the first time, locally and globally.

Before you come

Six things people ask us first

What should I wear?

Come as you are. Some people dress smartly, others casually. There's no dress code.

When should I arrive?

Parking is rarely a problem, but aim to be there five minutes before the start so you can find a seat easily.

What happens to my kids?

At 10am everyone starts together, then children up to Grade 10 go to their age groups. Our 8am and 6:30pm services have no separate teaching, but children are very welcome in them.

What do I actually do?

Watch what everyone else does. We sit for most of the service and stand to sing. The person leading will say what's happening at each point, and you won't be expected to do anything you're not comfortable with.

Can someone meet me at the door?

Yes — get in touch beforehand and we'll arrange for someone friendly to greet you and sit with you if you'd like.

What if I can't get there?

The 10am service is livestreamed on YouTube, and each Sunday's sermon is posted there afterwards. Selected sermons are on our podcast, on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
