Rouse Hill

Sunday Morning Worship

Day/Time: Sunday 10:30AM

Location: 6A Edwards Rd, Nelson NSW 2765

Worship services are a gathering and celebration of people from all walks of life and all different ages.

Our church aims for a family friendly service, ensuring we plan for our littlest people right through to those who’ve seen many years in life. Come and experience our church. 

Morning services start with music aimed at focusing our thoughts on God.  During our services there is time to talk about and pray about local and international issues and to hear about the life of the church.  We share news about  upcoming events and are challenged and enriched by God’s word through our pastors’ messages and guest speakers.

There’s an opportunity for a great morning tea and a chat after church.

Project CSC

Project CSC is an initiative of The Salvation Army based out of Rouse Hill. C.S.C stands for Connect, Support, Community and aims to support families of children with medically complex or additional needs practically, socially, spiritually and emotionally within the Hills District and further into the Northwest Sydney corridor.

Our aim is to provide social and emotional support by facilitating pastoral conversations, providing and engaging in social and emotional support groups and where possible supporting whole complex and special needs communities’ well-being activities.

It is essential to have natural opportunities to meet and engage with families to build relationship so that open sharing and trust can be built, grow and thrive.
