From the Founders
What a momentous season this is as we celebrate 30 years of C3 Church Tuggerah!
When Ps Julie and I birthed the church in 1996, it was with a passion to see souls saved, lives transformed and to become a lighthouse in the community. We had a small congregation, a big vision, and a faith that God would do something far greater than we could see at the time!
In those early years, we gathered together in School Halls with expectancy, building not just a church, but a family. Then in 2002, we took a significant step of faith and purchased 11 acres of land in Tuggerah. To us, this land represented promise, purpose, and the future God had spoken to our hearts.
For five years, we met in a tent on this very property, through all seasons (in every sense of the word!). Then in 2008, we began building the Church facilities which we all enjoy today.
By the grace of God, over these 30 years we have seen countless souls discover Jesus, lives transformed and families restored. We have watched our church family grow, not just in number, but in heart, in generosity, and in our impact within the community.
To every person who has been part of this journey, we want to say THANK YOU! Thank you for your faith, your giving, your serving, and your belief in what God is doing through this house. Each of you has helped shape the story of C3 Tuggerah.
As we step into Vision Builders 26/27 and continue our mission to ‘Build, Care & Reach’, we feel a renewed strength and conviction that God is not finished, He is just getting started.
“To infinity and beyond!”
Ps Phil & Julie

BUILD
Our heart is to create a home where people can encounter God and experience genuine community. We are continually improving our facilities to better serve and empower our church and its people.
As we look to the future, we have space and plans for a range of community-focused amenities, including sporting fields, a men’s shed, and children’s playgrounds, as well as DA-approved plans for a second 700-seat auditorium, positioning us to accommodate future growth and expand our impact.

CARE
Our C3 Cares arm aims to be the hands & feet of Jesus in our local community.
