Hanmer Springs
Getaway is back for 2025. Whether you’ve been at Campus Church for 3 years or 3 weeks, we’d love you to join us for a weekend in Hanmer - to relax, make new friends, and set yourself up for success as a student following Jesus at uni.
What's On
Term 1: Co-Workers
Co-workers gives you a chance to grow and be equipped with doctrine and practical skills essential to the Christian life. It runs for an hour, weekly, with a couple of weekends away throughout the year to dig into particular topics.
Life Course
Next course starts 27 Feb
The Life Course is a free 4-week course that seeks to boil Christianity down to the basics and show how Jesus makes sense of life. It's a relaxed environment with some time to hang out and chat, a short talk, discussion time and a Q&A session.
Newish
When you arrive at Cornerstone, Newish is the best place to start. We look at five areas important for a healthy church and see what the Bible says about belonging to God’s people. It’s perfect if you have already decided to join us regularly, but equally valuable if you’re still unsure and have questions. From there, we can help you with the next step in church life. See the welcome table on Sunday to get the details for your campus.
Growth Groups
Our weekly Growth Groups are central to the way we walk alongside each other; we grow more like Christ, pray and care for one another, rooted in the Word of God.
Sign-ups for Growth Groups 2025 are now open.
Shared Meals
Sharing meals together is a key and Biblical way for us to build relationships with each other and welcome new people into our community. All of our congregations have regular opportunities to enjoy time together over food after their Sunday service. Details are communicated at church each week and through our WhatsApp congregational noticeboards.
