About the Mildura Church of Christ

James Thompson

Senior Pastor

Hi, I’m James Thompson, Senior Minister at Mildura and Red Cliffs Churches of Christ. My life radically changed when I had a God experience that filled me with love, joy, passion and purpose. Now I love helping others discover that same life with Him.

​

We believe Jesus came to bring life in all its fullness. It's a life that shapes every part of who we are: our relationships, families, work, health, and everyday decisions.

​

We're working together to see this life spread across Sunraysia through a movement of disciples making disciples and churches being planted, and we’d love to invite you to belong and experience it with us! There’s a place here for every generation to grow, connect, and flourish.

​

If you’re curious, I’d love you to check us out and come say hello.

Our Mission

Loving God

Loving People

This mission statement defines the purpose of the Church - to love God and to love people. This is echoing the words of Jesus when he was asked, ‘What is the greatest Commandment.”
The Mildura Church of Christ is committed to these two primary core values.

Our Origin

How We Got Here

The Mildura Church of Christ has been functioning since 1890. Early in 1890, Rueben Mansell put an advertisement in the local paper calling together those few people who were to form the Church of Christ in Mildura.

 

The congregation would continue to grow and a church building was finally built in 1908. Since then, the Church has continued to reach out into the community, with members from Mildura Church planting churches in Merbein, Red Cliffs, Dareton & Robinvale.

 

Our rich history, and the many key members that contributed so much over the years, have brought us to where we are today and allow us to continue having a profound effect in the Sunraysia area.

What can our church offer you?

Our Church offers weddings, funerals, baby dedications, baptisms, care and Christian counselling, as well as relevant and vibrant worship services. The Mildura Church of Christ aims to conduct these activities in a professional and caring manner that will have a lasting effect on you and your family.

 

As a Church we respect the fact that everyone is different and has different needs. With this in mind, we aim to be relevant and provide a service which would best suit you and your family, making your time with us a memorable one.

Churches of Christ Vic/Tas

Our church is a member of Churches of Christ Vic/Tas (CCVT). Churches of Christ Vic/Tas (CCVT) is a movement of more than 130 Communities of Hope and Compassion (which may look like churches as we have known them) spread across Victoria and Tasmania, embedded in their neighbourhoods as signs, witnesses, and foretastes of the Kingdom of God.


CCVT Inc is the coordinating body that exists to support these diverse Communities of Hope and Compassion in their God-given and God-driven calling to their neighbourhoods. CCVT acts with affiliated communities through three Functional Area teams.
