The Lakes Church at Tuggerah is holding a grand opening celebration on March 15.
The celebration and open day will run from 12pm to 3pm with the general public welcome to attend.
Senior Pastor, David Sheath, said the event will include a free barbecue lunch, slushies and snow cones, as well as, information stalls, a free jumping castle and activities for kids, with the cafe open for barista coffees and other refreshments.
“The Lakes Church started 18 years ago with a small group of people meeting in a lounge room, and has since grown to a congregation of nearly 600 people.
“After 14 years of meeting at Tuggerah Lakes Secondary College, Berkeley Vale Campus, the church purchased a property in Tuggerah Business Park and has now moved into a purpose built ministry centre that includes a 400-seat auditorium, youth hall, meeting rooms, a café and open grass area for outdoor activities,” Pastor Sheath said.
“Over the past 18 years, we have seen hundreds of lives impacted through the ministry of The Lakes.
“Families have been restored, addictions broken, and genuine community has been built.
“We are excited by the opportunities we will have in the future to serve our local community through our ministry centre,” Pastor Sheath said.
