I'm New

Our services are typically 1.5 hours long.  We start with songs, leading into prayer moments followed by a message by one of our team. After the service the people hang around if they can for a bite to each and coffee if desired.

You’ll be greeted with a warm welcome from our team and assist with you finding a seat. After the service you will be welcomed back to our reserved tables for lunch and coffee on us where we’d love to get to know you and answer any questions you may have.

All of our locations have either a car park or available off-street parking. Don’t worry, there’ll definitely be a space for you.

Absolutely not, but you’re more than welcome to. We believe in what we do, are generous, but have ZERO expectations, and definitely don’t want you to feel any pressure.

Come as you are! When visiting Encounter come dressed however you feel comfortable.

We are a passionate multi-generational church that’s not afraid to get to the heart of the matter. We’re real people doing real life being transformed by Jesus.

Gawler eKids have 3 programs (preschoolers, lower primary and upper primary) where Jesus is taught in a fun and interactive way. These programs happen simultaneous to our Sunday 10am service.
