Mission
We invite people to discover God and walk with our community to develop their unique personal relationship with God.
Vision
That we would have a church community that embraces and celebrates its diversity and learns from that diversity and each other to develop our personal faith. That the wider community knows and believes they are invited to walk with us, and that our invitation and faith is authentic.
Values
Love – Justice – Compassion – Openness

Christian Hindi Speaking Fellowship
This is a network of Indian-Fijians who were part of the Methodist Church of Fiji, and who, having migrated to Australia, wish to keep alive their Hindi language in worship and singing. They meet on the last Sunday of each month at 2:30 pm, followed by afternoon tea. Their worship is in Hindi and English and anyone interested is welcome.
Merthyr Road is pleased to host these two ministries
