Generations at Neuma

Neuma Kids

Neuma Kids is the children's ministry of Neuma Church, where Jesus is at the centre of everything we do.

Our passion is to see children deeply rooted in biblical truth, encounter the Holy Spirit, and confidently walk in their identity in Christ.

We believe kids are not just the future of the Church – they are a powerful part of it right now! Kids Church gather every Sunday at each service.

Neuma Youth

Neuma Youth is a vibrant community of young people who gather every Friday night during the school term from 6:30pm – 9:00pm (term time) to encounter God, grow in faith, and discover their true identity as sons and daughters of the King.

Each night begins with fun and connection, flows into powerful worship, and finishes with practical equipping for real-life discipleship.

Every young person is part of a Life Group where they are known, nurtured, and empowered to walk boldly in their God-given purpose.

Neuma Young Adults

Ages 18–30

Neuma Young Adults is a thriving community of passionate believers who are pursuing Jesus and purpose together — not just on Sundays, but throughout the week.

Our YA's gather fortnightly on Wednesdays (7:00–9:00pm) in Life Groups where authentic relationships are built, faith is strengthened, and purpose is refined. We believe every young adult carries unique gifts, and we encourage them to serve and lead within the life of the church.

Life Groups

Life Groups are where faith becomes family. Like the believers in Acts 2:42–47, we gather to open God's Word, share meals, pray together, and care for one another. In these Christ-centered communities, lives are transformed, hearts are united, and joy overflows as we grow together in purpose, generosity, and love.

  • What happens at a church service?

    A typical gathering includes prayer (we love to pray!), contemporary worship music with words on the screen, practical Bible based teaching, and connecting with others. After the service, we would love to host you over a tea or coffee as a relaxed way to meet with others. If you're visiting for the first time, please let one of our team know as they'd love to serve you and introduce you to our church.

  • Will I be pressured to do anything?

    Nope! Enjoy the service as our guest. We welcome you to participate but we do not want you to feel pressured to do anything. You will never be asked to stand out in any way. We want to do everything possible to make your visit for the first time as comfortable as possible. We do provide an opportunity for our regular church members to give, however there's no obligation. Most people dress in either casual clothing or smart casual. Please feel free to wear what is comfortable for you.
