Grace Rotorua

A Member of Grace Presbyterian Church of New Zealand. We are one of 22 churches from North Shore to Invercargill.

Our denomination is 15 years old, Grace Rotorua is 7 years old.

Our Central focus is the sovereignty and sufficiency of Jesus Christ his deity, humanity, sinless life and substitutionary death for the sinful saved. He is fully God and fully man.

As revealed in the Bible, our reference for knowing and serving.

Our theology is Reformed, yet we are ever reforming as led by the Holy Spirit acting upon our hearts by the Word

We desire to do Gods Kingdom work here as we wait for His return.


Kiaora!  Maloelelei!  Welcome!

So glad we can take time together to worship our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Through hearing the word through singing through praying, through sharing a cup of tea we are expressing our love for the Lord through community together.

Church is very simly an expression of Christ being present on earth and throughout the world the gathered people of God express a sure and certain hope of His bodily return in power and glory.

Let’s not take our community lightly.  Let’s be bound together with cords of love.  Let’s forgive quickly.  Let’s be completely humble and consider others better than ourselves.  Let’s follow Christ’s example of servant hood.  Let’s willingly become low so at the right time, Jesus will lift us up.

God opposes the proud, but He gives grace to the humble (James 4:6, Psalm 138:6).

He will never fail us.


Galatians 5:1-15 – Freedom!

  1. Luke 7:36-50
