Our Central Campus is the cumulative result of 6 years of negotiations, sacrifice and miracles which have resulted in God positioning LIFE with an iconic facility in a prime position in New Zealand's largest city.
Our Campuses are open homes - places of connection and friendship where you can find and build genuine relationships. We invite you to hang around after our Sunday services for a coffee, some food and to meet some of the amazing people here at LIFE.
What To Expect
On any given Sunday, you will first see our friendly car-parking team directing you to available parking spaces on-site.
Our welcome team will greet you at the door and assist you to find the kids' check-in if you would like to register your child for our pre-school or primary in-service programme, Adventure Kids. For those with babies under the age of 1, a hosted parents' room is also available with areas for feeding and kitchen facilities.
Our 70 min services include time for contemporary praise and worship as well as a relevant message.
If you're looking for a more intimate environment, we also stream the service at 9am in The Chapel for those who would prefer a church experience with reduced volume and lighting.
Adventure Kids
Our Adventure Kids programmes run at every service, for children aged 1 until they finish primary school
