The Lamb of God Community
Where can you find us?
The Lamb of God Community is established throughout New Zealand and has grown to about 700 men, women and children. We have established branches in Auckland, Wellington, Hawke’s Bay, Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim and the Southern branch covering Timaru, Oamaru, Dunedin, Balclutha and Invercargill.
The Community also has a centre in Thames Street, Mairehou, Christchurch. This modern, multi-purpose facility is available for hire to church and community groups. For more details email lambofGodChristchurch@gmail.com
Who is it for?
We are an inter-generational group encompassing both married and single people. We also highly value family life, our children and our youth. We believe that our children are our future and we desire to pass on to them an “inheritance that does not decay, spoil or fade away.”
The Lamb of God Community has a National Youth Programme called Kairos New Zealand (KNZ). It aims to support the youth from the age of 10 onwards to teen years and when they become adult single men and women. It is important for the youth to have friendships and mutual support so that their faith can grow and be nurtured.
We are a multi-cultural community. All are welcome to the Lamb of God. Many people from different cultures from around the world have come to join us and experience the richness of our diversity even as we are one united Christian Community. Kiwis, Europeans, Indians, Filipinos, Samoans, Malaysians, Chinese and others comprise our rich cultural mix. We believe we are called to be one people.
How often do we meet?
The Community members in their various locations normally meet together once a fortnight for worship characterized by charismatic praise, openness to gifts of the Spirit, and Scripture–based teaching and encouragement. Most branches also have home cell groups that meet every week. We aim to give ongoing support by having a pastoral approach to caring for one another. The Community is a place for both families and single people.
