Welcome
Hello, we're so glad you're checking us out!
Cornerstone Willoughby was planted in 2020. We are a biblical community passionate about Jesus and His gospel. We want to see people nearby and from afar come to trust and treasure Christ. We are proudly intergenerational and multiethnic. We believe the love that arises out of the gospel has the ability to overcome any cultural or socio-economic barriers. We hope that God will grow this community so we can reach more people with the gospel. For that reason we love having visitors join us. If you plan on visiting please make time for morning tea after worship so we can get to know you over a nice cup of batch brew!
Service times and location
Our Sunday worship begins at 9:30am. We meet in the main auditorium at 123a High Street, Willoughby East. On arrival, you will be asked to fill out our visitors form where you will receive a printed name tag. For that reason we suggest that it's best to arrive at 9:25am. We also hold services on Good Friday and Christmas that start at the same time.
What to expect
You should expect to be led in worship. That begins with our praise team leading us in both timeless and contemporary songs. This is followed by prayer and a warm welcome where we also make any announcements. Next we have an engaging kids talk for children. Then right after, the children head off to either creche or CKids (our kids program for primary aged children). Finally we listen to the sacred reading and preaching of God's word. The service ends with a song and a blessing, after which everyone heads outside onto the grass to enjoy fellowship and morning tea.
Getting here
There's plenty of places to park your car in neighbouring streets. We do encourage you to be considerate of our neighbours. If you are taking public transport, you can take the 115 or 120 buses, which stop on Penthurst Street, followed by a short walk down Laurel Street. Alternatively, you could take the 267 bus down Mowbray Rd and walk 5 minutes down High Street.
For whatever reason, if you are unable to get to us, please let us know and we will arrange for someone to come pick you up and take you home.
