We’re Biblically-inspired by the likes of Nehemiah, a wise, caring, prayerful and strong person, who led his people to repair the broken walls of their city Jerusalem, and to bring about flourishing. Auckland Church Network is not a church, nor a denomination. It is an organic movement, in which all Bible-believing churches can participate. We’re working together to bring flourishing to our city.
