CLIC is a new Church Plant of Evangelical Community Church Inc. in Holland Road, Blackburn South. (ECCi) We are a contemporary Spirit filled family church that is for all people group, tongues, tribe and nations! It is not just a Church but a Family! We believe that Relationship is key to a successful life and family. We seek to be more than a friendly Church, and that is to give Friendship. CLIC is passionate about Missions to reach our community of the world starting with the community in the City of Casey. Our Sunday Celebration meeting is contemporary in nature and in a relaxed, informal style. You’ll experience God’s life-transforming power, receive practical life-application messages and develop meaningful friendships. We have families, youth and children’s ministry. There’s prayer for healing and ministry for personal needs. Join us also for a good fellowship after each Sunday Celebration Meeting. We also have an Agape Lunch once a month. We’ll be excited to meet you and love to get to know you more! Sunday Meetings at 11am are now held at our new location in CLIC LIfe Centre (Former Berwick SDA Church Hall) since 19 Oct 2008.

Our Dream To Be?
A Family Church, recognizing that we are in one big Family of God. Our relationship with God is a family based relationship between a Father & child. We recognize that the Family is the core and foundation of society. We are family focused and family friendly. We seek to build, strengthen and add value to thefamily life. A home where there is love and acceptance, even when we are diverse and from different cultures, is a family for all.
A Church that is Diverse and Relational. Life is about relationship. Relationship is the key. We seek to be embracing; to give friendship and not just being be friendly on in a superficial way. We seek to have a right relationship with God, with ourselves and with others. Loving Godand loving people is the key to strong and deep relationship.
A Church that is for the Community. We are community based. We want to be relevant to our community and desire to reach out to the community in whatever little way we can, from the children to the senior citizens! We want to support the campus ministry work at Monash Uni Berwick. We want to support the network of Churches in the City of Casey and see the glory of the Lord fills this place.
A Church that has a Missions Heart. God’s agenda is a global agenda. Our hearts are for the nations of the world. Melbourne is a place where there is a gathering of people from all over the world. We are focused on fulfilling the Great Commission. It is a Church that reaches out to all! This is what the Church exists for; to finish the work of Christ and to bring about the fulfillment of the Great Commission.
