For the past four years, we’ve had the honour of leading Zion Church here on the Gold Coast. In that time, we’ve seen so many people come to faith, be baptised, healed, discipled, and equipped. We’re deeply grateful for every person who’s been part of that journey. It’s been a privilege to walk with you and to see what God has done in you and through you.

We want to announce that starting 2026, Zion will no longer be operating as a local church. We know that this may come as a surprise to some, but those who have been part of our community, are well aware as we have been journeying toward this together over the past few months.

The Gold Coast has been our home for over 40 years and we love this city and its people. Today our city is filled with many amazing churches and we believe it’s in good hands pastorally.

As we step into this new season; you need to know that our family will be planted in a local church here. Our hearts are aligned with the churches and pastors in this city, and we’re committed to supporting, encouraging, and strengthening unity as the body of Christ grows.

We will be pouring into churches and ministries across the Gold Coast, Australia, and the nations. We will be also creating media, courses, and books to help equip the saints, and be coming alongside pastors and leaders to contribute to unity locally through combined church events.

We’re so thankful for this last season of pastoring and we are full of faith for this next chapter. May God Bless you as you step into 2026 and we hope to partner with you to bring heaven to earth.

If you would like to send us a testimony, please email hello@zionchurch.co. We would love to hear what God has done!
