Better toGather

We are calling for everyone who wants to be a host and attendee of a Church @ Home Group! Register here.

Definitely! We recommend that you share the Church @ Home Group registration link with them. In the comments area of the form, ask them to put your name down so that we can put them in the same group as you.

Yes! Please register here. And we will assign you to a Church @ Home Group.

With restrictions in place that will likely remain for quite some time yet, Church @ Home will continue to be our ‘primary church’ for 2021 and for the foreseeable future.

Yes, we would like everyone to check-in when attending their Church @ Home Groups. This allows us to assist with contact tracing if the need arises. We also encourage everyone to download and use the COVIDSafe app when they are at any of our gatherings.

We encourage you to be part of the same Church @ Home Group for the duration of the round. This allows you to build meaningful relationships over time as you gather together and share conversation.

If, however, any difficulties arise, please get in touch with hosts@sle.church.

Yes! We understand that some may find it challenging to commit to a Church @ Home Group due to their own circumstances. We are encouraged that you still want to physically meet up with others in your own capacity over a Sunday live stream.

Inform your Church @ Home Group Host as soon as you can. We hope you’ll feel better soon and join us again when you’re well again.

No, you do not have to. We want to provide different options of connection and engagement to everyone. If you are not ready to commit to a Church @ Home Group, you are free to continue joining us via live stream or meeting a smaller group of people in an ad-hoc manner.

We still believe that being a church means physically meeting together. And we encourage you to move towards that as you are able to.

According to current government guidelines, please get tested and isolate yourself till you receive your test result. Then inform us as well at info@sle.church.

All tickets are issued through Eventbrite. You can follow us on Eventbrite here.

There is a waitlist for those who have missed registering for our services. As soon as a spot frees up, the next in line will be notified.

We strongly support Queensland Health's position for everyone to wear a mask if they are unable to practice adequate physical distancing.

Holy Communion is currently scheduled to be conducted once a month at both Church @ Ryans and in Church @ Home Groups in a COVIDSafe manner.

There will be no morning for this period. We encourage attendees to bring their own snacks and drinks, especially for young children.

Our hosts will check you in when you arrive. You are required to first sign up via Eventbrite. Registration is open between Tuesday and Thursday before each Sunday service. Our hosts will politely turn you away if you have not registered on Eventbrite. We also strongly encourage all attendees to download and activate the COVIDSafe app when attending any of our gatherings.

Of course! We anticipate that everyone has a chance to be back in church at least once every few weeks. Outside of the 1 week back in church, we strongly encourage everyone to be part of a Church @ Home Groups to continue connecting with others in our church family.

Yes! Kids Church (Preschool and Primary) will be available to parents coming back to church. Every child MUST be registered through Eventbrite.

For both our Junior and Primary Kids Church, our teachers will be watching videos with the children on Padlet (still available to those who are joining us online), and helping them out with their worksheets and praying with them.

For Junior Kids Church, please bring your crayons/markers, glue stick and a pair of scissors (kindy and prep kids only) in a labelled pencil case. Please also pack some snacks and a water bottle for your child's morning tea. If you think your child may have difficulty settling in initially, do pack their favourite toy/comforter from home just to help with transition. As always, do ensure that all belongings are clearly labelled. Print outs and craft materials will be supplied by the teachers.

For Primary Kids Church, in addition to providing the worksheets, we will also make necessary craft supplies available. Kids are encouraged to bring their own colouring materials, scissors, glue sticks in a labelled pencil case along with morning tea, and water bottles!

If your child is displaying any COVID19 symptoms, please adhere to Queensland Health guidelines and stay at home. Kids Church will still be available online for those following us at home.

Definitely! We would love for your friends to come join us as we open God’s Word together. We ask that you register them through Eventbrite on the Sunday you intend to come with them.

If you are unable to get a ticket for service, you can opt to be in the waiting list or join our Church @ Home Groups.

Go to your ticket that has been emailed to you and click on “View and manage your order online”. Select “Cancel Order” to let us know you will no longer be coming.

Doing this promptly allows us to offer your spot to someone else.

Things are unlikely to go back to their pre-COVID19 times in the near future. The old normal is still a long way off.

Despite this, what hasn’t changed is our focus on the SLE Mission and Vision. Our vision ‘to be a prayerful Christ-centred community that proclaims the Gospel to unbelievers and grows disciples of Jesus Christ’ – that vision remains a key focus of why and what we do at SLE Church.

No. To keep everyone safe, we require everyone to register their interest for attendance through Eventbrite. 

If you would like to be part of our gatherings, we ask that you register for a service through Eventbrite or join a Church @ Home Groups.

No, you do not have to. We want to provide different options of connection and engagement for everyone. If you are not ready to come back to church, you might consider joining the Church @ Home Groups.

Yes, we will still be streaming our services on Sunday via YouTube. Both our 9am and 11:40am services start streaming about 10 minutes before service starts.

Check out our YouTube channel here.

As per current Queensland Government guidelines, we can host up to 48 people in the North hall to meet the ruling of 1 person per 2m².

Kids Church will also be running in rooms on the basis of 1 person per 2m².

According to current government guidelines, please get tested and isolate yourself till you receive your test result. Then inform us as well at info@sle.church.
