About our church
We are a faith community committed to bringing the transforming love of Jesus to the Bays and Albany area, through inspirational biblical teaching, uplifting worship and connecting with others. We bring hope and support through our weekly programmes including community ministries, youth and children's activities.
Our vision is to be a thriving, Christ-centered community that transforms lives and impacts our city and beyond with God’s love. We aspire to be a beacon of hope, welcoming all people to experience the life-changing power of Jesus, grow in their faith, and live out their purpose.
Through intentional discipleship, compassionate outreach, and empowering leadership, we seek to inspire generations to follow Jesus and make a lasting impact on our world.
Albany Bays Salvation Army is part of the wider, international Salvation Army. We sit under the New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa Territory and receive support, guidance and accountability from this part of The Salvation Army organisation.
