An investment fund manager hadn’t been to church in 10 years. Like many modern Australians, he was very suspicious of traditional Christianity and had lost all interest in church. But then he struck up a friendship with an MTW missionary and eventually became interested in their ministry. He started going to church, renewed his faith in Christ, and eventually joined the church-planting team.

In addition to the largely unchurched local population, Sydney is also home to a wide range of people from all over the world. For that reason we believe it is a very strategic global city. To that end our team has established Harbour City Church, from which we hope to plant more churches across Sydney, and from there to other countries in Asia. The core of our ministry is Student Outreach to the World, a ministry to college students which prepares them for a lifetime of discipleship. We organize worship, discipleship training, and leadership building at four major universities in Sydney. We have also started City Sanctum, an outreach to the business world, which focuses on personal relationships with young professionals.
