Connect With Us
We’re a new church plant in Port Macquarie linked with and accountable to Hillsong Church. What started as an interest weekend in August 2024 soon grew into weekly gatherings in a local lounge room. As our community grew, we moved into a larger space and officially launched Port Macquarie Connect in later 2024.
If you’re in Port Macquarie and looking for a church community,
we’d love to welcome you to Port Macquarie Connect.
Tithes & Offerings
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. 'Test me in this,' says the Lord Almighty, 'and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.” Malachi 3:10 (NIV)
Tithing is a way we honour God by giving our first and best back to Him. It’s a step of obedience that aligns our hearts with His, and it opens the door for His blessings, favour, and protection in our lives. When we tithe, it helps provide for the church, allowing us to be the hands and feet of Jesus in our community and beyond, sharing His love with a world that needs it.
Hamish & Cass
Hamish and Cass are married with two daughters
and are the leaders of Port Macquarie Connect.
In May 2023, they moved from Sydney, Australia - where they had been part of the staff and team at Hillsong Church for nearly two decades - to follow God’s call and build a church in Port Macquarie, Cass’ hometown.
Hamish and Cass are passionate about sharing the gospel of Jesus, raising up the next generation in a fun and safe environment, and creating a genuine church community where people of all ages and stages of life feel welcome.
Our purpose is simple: to love the people of Port Macquarie and be a place of hope, restoration, and life for anyone who steps into our space. We wholeheartedly believe that God loves the Mid North Coast and is transforming our area.
At Port Macquarie Connect, we believe life is better when shared. Whether you're exploring faith, searching for a fresh start, or looking for a place to belong - there’s a spot for you here.
We’re all about authentic community, inspiring worship, and living out God’s love in real, practical ways. So come as you are, bring your questions, and let’s do life together.
We can’t wait to meet you!
