We believe church should feel like family. A place where you are known, loved and genuinely welcomed, not because of what you do or where you've been, but simply because you walked through the door.
Our heart is simple. We love God, we love people, and we love doing life together. Whether everything is great right now or things are really hard, there is something here for you.
We believe church should be the highlight of your week, life-giving, Spirit-filled and full of people who genuinely care about you. That's what we want Futures Church to be for you.
Stick around after the service, grab a coffee, and come and say hi. We genuinely can't wait to meet you.

Welcome to Futures Kids at Paradise
At Futures Kids Paradise, we believe every child is created by God with purpose. Our heart is to help children know Jesus, build a genuine faith, and discover who God created them to be. Every Sunday is filled with worship, engaging Bible teaching, fun, friendships, and caring leaders. We partner with families to raise the next generation to love Jesus, love His Church, and make a difference.
We believe children aren’t just the Church of tomorrow—they’re an important part of the Church today. Every Sunday, kids are welcomed into a safe, fun, and faith-filled environment where they encounter Jesus through worship, Bible teaching, friendships, and caring leaders. Our heart is for every child to feel known, valued, and encouraged as they grow in faith and discover they were created to make a difference.

Honestly, the heart of Futures Church is pretty simple, we love God, we love people, and we believe church is meant to be a family. Not a building you visit once a week, but an actual family. The kind where people know your name, show up when life gets hard, and celebrate with you when things are good. We're passionate about doing life together, genuinely together, not just a quick handshake on a Sunday. Our services are life-giving, Spirit-filled and Bible-based, and we want every person who walks through the doors to leave feeling seen, encouraged and full.
When it comes to the kind of family we are, we make room for everyone. It doesn't matter how old you are, what your background looks like, or where you're at in your faith journey. From kids and teenagers to young adults and beyond, there is a place for you here. We're committed to raising up the next generation, investing in people, and seeing everyone grow in their relationship with Jesus. We have small groups all across Adelaide, ministries for every age and stage. But more than the programs, it's the people. It's the culture. It's the feeling you get when you walk in and someone's already happy to see you. That's the kind of family we are, and honestly, once you're in, you're in. You belong here.
Honestly, it's like a big family. We love God, we love worship, and we're passionate about doing life together, and not just on Sundays. Most of all, it just feels like home.
Only at Paradise
Futures Church Paradise is one of those places that's hard to describe until you've experienced it, but we'll try. It's vibrant, it's alive, and the atmosphere is electric. From the moment the worship starts, there is something in the room that you just can't manufacture.
But what makes us truly special is the people. We are a church of all nations and all generations, young and old, families and singles, people from every background and walk of life, all in the one room, all worshipping the same God. There is something incredibly powerful about that. And even though we are a large church, people consistently tell us it feels like family from the very first Sunday.
Add to that a world-class kids program, a thriving youth ministry, young adults finding their feet, and small groups running all across the city, and you've got a church that's not just large, but full of life at every level and genuine connection at every turn. Come and experience it for yourself. We think you'll love it!
Kids · Paradise
Bring the kids. They'll love it.
At Futures Church we believe investing in kids is one of the most important things we can do. Futures Kids runs in every Sunday service and is a fun-filled, safe environment where children build real friendships with each other and with God. Every program includes praise and worship, Bible teaching, stories, crafts, games, and loads of fun — because we believe faith should be exciting, especially when you're young. We cater for children from the time they start walking right through to Grade 6, with age-appropriate groups so every child gets the most out of their experience. Our team of dedicated, trained leaders genuinely love kids and are passionate about partnering with families to build the faith of their children.
Check-in & safety
The safety of your children is our highest priority. Futures Kids operates a full check-in and sign-out process at every service. When you arrive, your child will be checked in and you'll receive a personalised sticker that is unique to your family. At the end of the service, no child is released without that sticker being presented, no exceptions. It's a simple process but one we take seriously, because we want every parent to enjoy the service knowing their child is completely safe and well cared for.

Youth
Dreamers Youth is the place for every high school student at Futures Church, and it's one of the highlights of our week. Meeting every Friday night during the school term, Dreamers is a vibrant, fun and faith-building community where young people come to connect, belong, and encounter God together. We believe in this generation deeply. We believe they are not just the church of tomorrow, they are the church of today. Dreamers exists to see every young person know who they are in God, build friendships that go the distance, and step into everything He has called them to be.

bU is the women's ministry at Futures Church. A vibrant community built around one simple belief: that every woman was uniquely created to make a powerful impact on her world. It's a space for women to connect, grow in faith, and step into everything God has for them.
Young Adults is for 18 to 25s. Whether you're a uni student, young professional, or young couple navigating life together. Whatever your story, there is a place for you here. Throughout the year we host events, hangs and gatherings to help you connect, grow in your faith, and do life together. We are passionate about discipling young men and women bold enough to believe they can change their world for Jesus. It's fun, welcoming, and full of people just like you. Come and find your people.
When
Wednesday Connect Groups and Various events through out the year
There is a place for everyone to serve at Futures Church and we'd love your help. Our teams include welcome and greeting, Futures Kids, worship, production, café and car park. Whatever your gift, passion or availability, there is a role that's just right for you. Getting involved is easy. Simply fill in the sign up form to let us know you're keen. We'll connect you with the right team leader, help you find where you best fit, and get you started. We believe serving is one of the best ways to feel truly at home at Futures.
Every Thursday morning we gather to pray for our church, our city, and our people. We believe that nothing happens until someone pray, but when someone prays, anything can happen. That's not just a saying, it's a conviction we build our lives around. Whether you've been praying for decades or you're just starting out, come and be part of it.
Worship at Futures is contemporary, high energy, and led by a full band that pours everything into it every single week. We sing a mix of original songs and well known worship anthems, but more than the sound, it's the atmosphere. A room full of people from every nation and generation worshipping God together. It's faith-filled, genuine, and one of those things that's hard to put into words until you've been in the room.

Taking your first steps with Jesus is one of the most exciting moments in life, and we want to walk every step of it with you. Our New Christians Course is designed specifically for those who have just given their life to Jesus or are exploring what faith really means. It covers the foundations of the Christian life, who God is, what the Bible says, prayer, community, and how to grow in your relationship with Jesus. From there we'll help you find a Connect Group and a community to journey with. You are not alone in this, we've got you.
