Frequently Asked Questions

Are you part of a denomination?

Are you an inclusive Church?

Wall Street places a very high value on being open and welcoming to ALL, as Jesus was, regardless of age, race, class, gender, orientation, or physical ability.

What time are your worship services?

The morning service is at 10am and the evening service is at 5.50pm.

What is the difference between the morning and evening service?

The morning worship service is more of a structured, traditional worship service with inspiring messages and uplifting music. Our talented music team blends contemporary worship music with more traditional hymns. The morning service is also available by livestream to our YouTube channel.

The evening Celebrate Life Service is very casual but holy. It is an opportunity for anyone and everyone to come and find an authentic, faith-led community filled with love. You can also join on Facebook at Celebrate Life Service. Send a request on facebook to be added to the group if this will be your first time.

But isn't church just for good people?

The whole point of Christianity is that none of us are good enough to make it on our own. If you feel like you need a safe space, a place where you belong, some support, guidance and help in life, join us at the Wall Street.

How do I need to dress?

Nowadays, not many dress up for church—just wear what you feel comfortable in.

How will I know what happens next during the service?

Most churches have some common features including songs, a talk of about 20 minutes, prayers and announcements. Just follow the crowd and you’ll be fine.

Do I have to sing?

We sing songs as a way of expressing our love for God. No one else is looking at you. Join in or listen if that is what you would like to do.

We are a Community

Church is not a building. The building is where we meet, but a church is a community of people who want to support each other, share God’s love to others and make a difference in the community and the world. It’s not about rules – Christianity is about a transforming relationship with Jesus and with others.

We hope you stay and join us for coffee time and fellowship and after our morning service. It’s a great time to meet us and everyone will be happy to answer any questions you may have. You can also connect with our Newcomers Team.
