Planning a Visit? Here’s What to Expect at our North Shore Campus.

At City Impact Church North Shore, our Sunday services are uplifting and welcoming, bringing people together to grow in faith, build community, and worship Jesus. Here’s what you can look forward to when you join us: 

Warm Welcome
From the moment you arrive, our friendly team is ready to greet you and help you feel right at home. You’ll notice our carpark team as soon as you enter, they’re the ones in the high-vis gear. Just let them know it’s your first time and they will happily direct you and answer any questions you have. We have car parks reserved for first-time guests, parents with babies, the elderly and the mobility parking.

Once you’ve parked, head towards the large building in the middle of the carpark. If you’re not sure where to go, just ask anyone with a lanyard – they will be happy to help you!


Dynamic Worship
All our services begin with spirit-filled praise and worship led by our talented team, aiming to create an atmosphere where you can connect with God.  Expect loud praise, vibrant lighting and a joyful atmosphere as everybody joins in and sings along to the lyrics on screen. Followed by powerful, Jesus glorifying worship songs. This is a moment to connect with God, feel the presence of the Holy Spirit and be encouraged in your faith.


Engaging Preaching
Following worship, one of our pastors delivers a message grounded in biblical truth. Our teaching is designed to inspire, challenge, and encourage you on your faith journey. We are a proud Pentecostal church – so you can also expect times of prayer throughout the service where we lift our needs and the needs of others up to God. If you have a prayer need you can fill in a prayer request form – again just ask anyone in a lanyard or visit our Info Desk in the foyer for help.

During every service, the preacher will do a salvation call and give people the opportunity to give their heart or re-commit their life to Jesus.


Kids Church
We believe church should be exciting and meaningful for kids too! Our Kids Church provides fun, engaging programs designed to help children learn about Jesus in a way that speaks to them. With praise and worship, interactive Bible stories, and age-specific activities tailored for children aged 1 year through school year 6. 

When you arrive, head to the Kids Church check-in area in our Auditorium building, where our friendly team (look for the Kids Church T-Shirts!) will be ready to help—especially if it’s your first time. You’ll check your child in, and they’ll receive a registration sticker to wear. While you’ll be given a corresponding number that you’ll need to present at the end of the service to collect your child.

We’re here to give you and your family a smooth, enjoyable experience—because we love seeing kids grow in faith and have a blast doing it!


City Impact Youth
Junior High is the place to be for children in school years 7-8 on Sunday mornings! They meet on Sunday mornings for an exciting Youth service filled with games, powerful preaching, and even prizes! It’s a great space to build strong friendships, grow in faith and be equipped for the future. If you’re new, head to the front of the Sanctuary by the stage, before the service starts where all the Junior High kids gather for praise and worship together before going downstairs for their own program. Our Junior High leaders will be there too. Ask anyone in a lanyard to help you find the Junior High team. 

Our Youth program for school years 9 to 13 runs every
Friday night during the school term. Expect praise-parties, God-encounters, inspiring messages, epic games, and plenty of space to hang out and make friends.

Let’s Connect After the Service
After the service, take a moment to connect over coffee and conversation. Church is about more than just attending a service—it’s about doing life together and building meaningful relationships.

On certain Sundays, we run an introduction meeting called Intro. We’d love to invite you to join us upstairs in the Executive Lounge (just above the foyer) after the 10am service for coffee and a slice. It’s a relaxed time to meet some of our team and hear more about the heart, history, and vision of our church. You’ll also discover what’s coming up and how you can get involved.

On weekends when Intro isn’t happening, we’d still love to connect with you! Head over to our Guest Lounge for a complimentary coffee—just look for the Ask Me sign and the comfy couches to the left of the big pool as you exit the service. We’d love to say hi and help you feel right at home.


Meet the Campus Pastors
Meet our Campus Pastors, Ps Greg and Krista Crawford. They are here to support you, pray with you, and help you find your place in our church family. When you visit, be sure to introduce yourself—they would love to meet you!
