OIKOS is a servant ministry seeking to advance God’s Kingdom purposes in our land by supporting and encouraging Home Churches - both within and independent of the traditional church. We do this through the provision of relevant news and information in a quarterly newsletter, by personal contact, pastoral care and speaking engagements.

OIKOS is a means of providing information and seminars to those interested in Home Church

Bessie Pereira of OIKOS will facilitate this weekend gathering. Previous CHH gatherings in Melbourne and Sunshine Coast Queensland have been fruitful in affirming Christians who find themselves, for various reasons, outside the traditional church. CHH has assisted, where desired and possible, the beginnings of informal gatherings and has encouraged the development of the vision of groups within and independent of denominational churches. Her background is in the Anglican ministry. OIKOS, Bessie Pereira and the Team who work with her, have been serving the Home Church scene for almost 10 years.

Church Hits Home is for ......

• Christians who are ‘out on a limb’ in the Body of Christ. We want to encourage you where God has planted you. We want you to go away from this weekend knowing that there’s fruit ‘out on the limb’ where God has you!
• For those in Home Church, Cell Church, or who want to be.
• Those in Bible Study Groups and want to see their life develop as Church.
• For God’s people within traditional church or apart from it who have a hunch that God is preparing His people to be church in a fresh way for a most exciting future in this land.

Theology was reformed under Luther and others from the sixteenth century. In our day we see the Lord of the Church re-forming His church....

This is a weekend when we will seek to experience ‘being church’. We will take a fresh look at the church in New Testament times - and the rest that happens will come out of our being together as God’s people. Plenty of opportunity to share, discuss and explore.
