Geelong Harvest Campaign

Jesus said the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few, and he calls us to pray for more workers. That’s our heartbeat.

City on a Hill Geelong began in 2013 with 12 people in a home. Today, we’re a growing church of over 500—but the need is greater than ever. The harvest is ripe, and we need more workers.

So we’re asking our Father for $600K to widen our leadership pipeline, fuel church planting, increase our harvest space, and deepen our global gospel partnership in North India.

This is bold and beyond us—but not beyond God. Would you prayerfully partner with us? Whatever your capacity, give boldly, and pray with us for more workers

Help raise $600k to reach the harvest

Widen the leadership pipeline

We’re seeing a surge of young leaders stepping up for ministry — more than we can currently train. With $250K, we can expand our leadership pipeline and invest in the next generation of gospel workers to be sent out here in Australia and to the world.

Fuel church planting

Church planting is the most effective means given by God for reaching the lost. We’ve just launched our fourth church in Geelong and are preparing for number five, somewhere West of Melbourne. Your giving will help us to realise this vision.

Increase our harvest space

Our East Geelong base is overflowing. We need more space so that we can reach broader and deeper into the harvest field. We need $250K to reconfigure our current space and boost capacity by 35–40%, making room to grow the mission now and into the future.

Deepen our global partnership

For a decade, we’ve partnered with Enabled in North India, bringing hope to thousands of people in Jesus’ name. With $100K, we can strengthen this vital gospel partnership through funding and sending short term teams for on-the-ground support.
