About Us
FaithPoint Pentecostal church has a long history within the Illawarra, with its first work starting back in 1965 in an old butcher shop in Corrimal. This work began to provide a place where the truth of Jesus is shared.
We are a family of Christian believers who support one another through friendship, fellowship, and prayer.
We are a Bible-based, Spirit-filled church. We believe God changes lives through the power of His Spirit. This includes physical and emotional healing, deliverance from addiction, restoration of relationships, and the infilling of the Holy Spirit.
We are a United Pentecostal Church. You can learn more about the United Pentecostal Church Australia (UPCA) by clicking the link below:

What we believe
ABOUT THE BIBLE
The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living (II Timothy 3:15-17).
ABOUT GOD
There is one God, who has revealed Himself as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ, and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man (Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 3:16).
ABOUT SIN & SALVATION
Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9).
RESTORATION THROUGH THE BLOOD
The Lord Jesus came “… to seek and to save that which was lost.” (Luke 19:10). This divine act of restoration is dependent on the blood of the Lamb of God and is the foundation that makes salvation possible (Hebrews 9:22; Ephesians 1:7; Revelation 1:5).
ABOUT THE GOSPEL
The saving gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel by repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ (burial) and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit (resurrection) (I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 2:4, 37-39; Romans 6:3-4).
ABOUT CHRISTIAN LIVING
As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today (Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10).
ABOUT THE FUTURE
Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal punishment (Matthew 25:41-46; I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15).
2024 Vision
I WILL BUILD is our vision for 2024!
Matthew 16:18 declares with Jesus first as our foundation and truth, that on this rock, this foundation, He says, "I will build my church".
1 Corinthians 3:9-11 states that we are co-labourers with Christ and that we must be actively working on our relationship with Him and each other to serve and reach our community.
A promise has been spoken, our foundation is set and we pray that each person of FaithPoint says “I will’ to serving Jesus.
As co-workers together with Him we are declaring "I WILL BUILD" this church!
