ABOUT US

A Church Led by the Holy Spirit

Thrive Community Church is a dynamic, non-denominational church founded by three couples serving in equal co-pastoral roles, united by a shared vision to cultivate a thriving, uncompromising body of believers. Our mission is to uphold the authentic move of the Holy Spirit, demonstrated through signs, wonders, and power.

We identify as a prophetic church, flowing in a strong prophetic grace. We encourage the practice of speaking in prayer tongues, and the gifts of tongues and interpretation have been clearly evident within our ministry.

We endeavour to be a Word-based church, where the foundational truth of the Logos (the written Word) becomes a living and active Rhema (a spoken word from God) in the lives of our congregation.

"Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth. I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert."

Isaiah 43:19 NKJV
