WELCOME HOME
Queen Elizabeth II 1926 - 2022
Today, Family Church mourns the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. An example to all, the Queen lived a life of humble and exemplary service to both her nation and her Lord. In her 2014 Christmas Day message, the Queen, a lady of genuine faith, shared these words:
“For me, the life of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, whose birth we celebrate today, is an inspiration and an anchor in my life. A role model of reconciliation and forgiveness, he stretched out his hands in love, acceptance and healing.”
Today, we pray for our nation and thank God for the Queen’s life of dedication. Though today we mourn, we also rejoice in the knowledge, hope and assurance of eternal life that Queen Elizabeth II will now experience with her saviour Jesus.
A moment of silence and reflection will be held in all of our weekend services.

SENIOR PASTORS GINA & ANDY ELMES
Welcome! We are Andy and Gina, the Senior Pastors of Family Church. Since the launch of our very first service in 1997, we have seen Family Church grow into the thriving multi-congregational church it is today with congregations across the south-coast, the Philippines and an online congregation. We have five incredible children; Olivia, Ethan, Gaby, Sophie and Christina and together we are passionate in our pursuit of sharing the Word of God.
As a Church we welcome people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures to join our church family. We are passionate about reaching people where they are, helping people grow into all God has called them to be, as well as empowering people to reach others and help them grow.
We would love for you to stop by and join us at one of our congregations. Take a moment to look around our website to find out more about each of our congregations and how you can get involved with Family Church throughout the week.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
