A message from our Senior Pastor
Welcome to Eastgate. We are a diverse church, knowing that God the Father loves all people so we’re living with confidence that Jesus can transform anyone. Faith in Jesus is radically changing our lives, our families and our communities. Come along to one of our services, join a mid-week group, and know the power of God’s Spirit as we honour Him together. We’re from all kinds of places and backgrounds. We’re not perfect; we don’t expect you to be, everyone is welcome here.
Our Vision
Eastgate is called to glorify God as a lighthouse church—every person, and all of us together—being transformed in relationship with Jesus, impacting our local neighbourhoods and beyond.
Kei te karangatia a Eastgate ki te whakakororia i te Atua hei Hāhi Wharemarama—ko tātou katoa, ā, ko tēnā, ko tēnā o mātou—e whakahoungia ana e tō mātou whanaungatanga ki a Īhu, e whai pānga ana ki ō mātou hapori kāinga, me tua atu.
Each service has the same teaching series and lasts around 75-80 minutes.
9am Morning Service
A welcoming service for all ages, with full-band and wholehearted worship. Children and youth up to Year 9 move to age-group programmes after an all-together time in the auditorium. This service is livestreamed via our YouTube and Facebook pages.
10:45am Chapel Service
A reflective service with space to connect with God and one another, shaped by an acoustic, stripped-back worship style. Children and youth move to a combined programme after an all-together time. Come early for a cuppa at the café before we start.
5:30pm Night Service
A relaxed and relational service led by young adults, with extended space to connect, reflect, and be formed together. While a parent-led crèche is offered, all ages are welcome in the service (no organised children’s programmes).

We make space for families to be families
Since 2017, we have been gathering each week at the local Rugby Club on Mahi Road. People of all ages and backgrounds come together for worship and teaching. Our kids programme welcomes ages 11 and under.
The service lasts about an hour fifteen, with plenty of time afterwards to meet new people over a hot cup of coffee or tea. We are an open and welcoming church, you’ll find real people sharing real stories of how faith intersects with all aspects of life.
Join us this Sunday as we worship, learn, and build community together in Te Kauwhata.
All are welcome.
Find us at the Rugby Club, 33 Mahi Road
