about us


Our Background…

    We are part of Christian City Church International, a fellowship of churches that began in 1980 when Pastors Phil and Chris Pringle founded a church in Sydney. That church is now CCC Oxford Falls, a large and influential church with world wide impact. Christian City Church International consists of over 180 churches in different parts of the world. The vision of Christian City Churches is to actively fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus Christ by preaching the gospel and planting churches, ministering to people of the 21st Century in a manner that is both biblical and relevant.

    Pastors Chris and Ruth Brown trained for ministry at CCC Sydney and moved to Russia in the early 1990’s where they served as missionaries. Upon return in 1993 they were appointed to pastor CCC Central Coast. Chris and Ruth love living on the Central Coast, they love their four children, and they love leading people closer to their God-given destinies. Since its inception C5 has grown and developed a wide range of ministries that have impacted many lives, both in the local community and overseas.
