Welcome to Pathway Church

MEETINGS HAVE COMMENCED FEB'26

Meetings Update: We are excited to announce that after a long break. If you want more information or context please blick on our NEW BEGINNINGS section of this Website and scroll down to "Our Story So Far" where we share our Hervey Bay journey with you.

God is drawing together a whole new bunch of people who share a common vision and are excited about the chance to be part of setting the foundation for a new, and perhaps quite different kind of Pentecostal church in Hervey Bay. We honour and support all those who pastor or lead local Bible believing churches on the Fraser Coast, no matter their denomination or chosen liturgy. We are all part of the vast body of Christ that the gates of Hell will never prevail against, and should always pray for and support one another. We are all, essentially, on the same team!

If you are viewing this Website for the first time, are perhaps new to Hervey Bay or in between churches, looking for something you can perhaps be a part of going forward, we might just be a good fit. But you'll never know unless you take a small step of faith and get in touch! Our vision is to build a new church in town where people can come and hear God's Word, worship, fellowship, make friends and grow and prosper in God.

We're in the process of updating the Website for 2026 so stay tuned. Check out the Pastors Blog page on this site which Tony and Kate keep current with many interesting and often challenging topics. Find us on Facebook by clicking on the link below, where we also post regularly about what's happening at Pathway Church. Come and join with us in making 2026 a special year for renewed fellowship, real spiritual growth, and make some new friends along the way.

 - Vlogs, Podcasts and AI: I’ve been also thinking about podcasts a lot these past few months, working on some AI ideas and vlogs, which is probably the way of the future in promoting the things of God to a wider audience than the local church community. I’ve posted a few examples on our Pathway FB page of the new wave of biblically oriented AI vlogs that are coming out. Humour mixed with modern interpretations of biblical themes and stories - something not possible only a few short years ago.

We not only live in interesting times, but times that are both wonderful and far-reaching in possibility for the kingdom. Too many Christian fatalists seem to see only evil in everything from politics to the cashless society to the general state of the world, the evils of globalisation, financial, geo-political social collapse and more. Seeking an early return of Christ to escape this evil and adulterous generation does not take into account God is, and always has been, in control. Jesus will return when the Father says so and not before, and it will be a surprise to everyone, at least according to biblical teaching.

However, while we wait for this end-times event we are commanded to get on with the job of meeting needs, healing wounds, setting captives free and populating heaven (Luke 4:18-19). To do this we must utilise every tool available. God is the great inventor and creator, not the devil, who can only corrupt and deceive. So let’s utilise all this awesome digital age has to offer, and use it to further the purposes of God’s kingdom, being the light and salt we are called to be. I've always been an optimist (with a realist bent), and there is still much to do in the kingdom before Jesus does actually return, and much still to discover, invent, and enjoy as we seek to obey His plan for our lives as Christian believers.
