Welcome to MEPC English!

Feel free to look around the website, and to ask us a question if you can’t find what you’re looking for.

Our Sunday Church Service starts at 10.00am, and you’re very welcome to join us for worship.

We’re located on the corner of Excelsior and Kimberley Streets in Guildford, and when you arrive, you’ll find two services happening at the same time, Arabic and English – meeting in the same building, but in different areas. The English meeting is upstairs. (There is a Sunday School for the kids, which commences at 10am in the Green Shed.)

About Us

MEPC began its ministry in Sydney about 40 years as an Arabic speaking evangelical church.

Like many ethnic churches, an English ministry to the children of migrants developed, which grew strongly through the years, and now continues as MEPC English.

MEPC holds firmly to the Apostles’ Creed in its confession, and to the Gospel in its witness. (As a member of the Presbyterian Church of New South Wales, MEPC also affirms the doctrinal position of the Westminster Confession of Faith.)

MEPC is currently staffed by two Ministers: Rev Nasif Kalada (Arabic) and Rev David McDougall (English).

Small Groups

Small Groups are now in motion in five locations around Sydney (St Helens Park, San Souci, North Kellyville, Bella Vista, and Austral) - three of them meeting fortnightly, two of them monthly - and working through The Ten Commandments in the LifeGuide Bible Studies series.

Events

Our Christmas season is fast approaching, and a number events are scheduled, like a Community Carols on Saturday 6th December (5pm-8.30pm) featuring a cracker of a program and gospel presentation by evangelist John North. The Christmas Day service, this year on a Thursday, will commence at 10am. And our year will finish with a NYE service starting at 11pm and finishing just in time for the city’s famous firework display at midnight.
