Our story
Evangelical Free Church of Australia was founded by several families in 1987, who migrated from Hong Kong to settle in Sydney. Since then, we’ve been a Bible-based community of people in Sydney’s North Shore, who love Jesus and are keen for others to know Him.
Vision
To equip and build up people to be passionate disciples of Jesus, so that they can impact the world for Him – to the glory of God.
