SPECIAL EVENTS

We’re a church building community. Some of our events scream ‘Jesus!’, others are suitable for anyone to attend, and the rest sit in the middle of both.

From movie nights, to days out and about town (or out of town!), to guest speakers… it’s all here. Have a question? We’re just a call away at 022 HOPE 822 or email us at admin@hopevineyard.nz.

Sunday guest speaker: Mick Duncan

Mick resides in ‘three worlds’. The first is the local church where he has served as a pastor. The second is the world of intentional households and incarnational church planting in slums. He has also established various disciple-making entities like Alongsiders, Red Letters and Carey’s Intermission programme where he still lectures. The third is the world where he is engaged in speaking, lecturing and writing. With academic degrees combined with ‘street degrees’ Mick brings discernment, wisdom and practical ministry and mission tools to his speaking and teaching.

Sunday, 11 and 18 May at our 11AM and 5PM gatherings.
