OUR BUILDING

The Church site, our New Home

In late 2024 New Vine Vineyards purchased three plots of land at 100 Maitland St, Branxton. The land comes with a historic house, originally built in 1847, and a shed suitable for use as a Food Bank.

The purchase was settled on 9th December 2024 and a Development Application has been lodged to implement a three-stage plan, as follows:

Stage 1: The shed will be converted into our Vineyards Food Bank. The house will receive renovations and a demountable building will be placed on the property as a temporary church.

Stage 2: We hope to start building the church around 2028/29. It will comprise a portal shed with all the amenities required for dynamic, family services.

Stage 3: A mezzanine, first-floor expansion, will accommodate future church growth.

We are very excited to have a place to call “home” after eight years of moving around the vineyards area! We know God has planted us in Branxton, and we place complete trust in Him to build this church. We would love you to keep our church building project in your prayers.

Helping the Building Grow

Our Development Application was passed by Council in 2025, so planning commenced.

In 2025 we put tenants in the house.

Next is the redevelopment of our shed into the Food Bank and placement of a demountable for our church meetings.

There is plenty of work to be done. Thank you to all the volunteers who are making the building possible!
