Community Gospel Choir.

We began a community choir in October 2008 and it consists of a mixture of church and community folk. Our numbers average around the mid forties and some of the venues the choir has performed at are the Edithvale and Aspendale RSL and various City of Kingston events. It is an outreach to everyone who loves to sing and have fun with other people while doing it.

Sunday Worship.

We meet together on Sunday mornings at 10.00 in our recently purchased worship centre, located at level 1, 450 Nepean Highway, Chelsea, 3196, entrance at the rear with ample car parking spaces or a short walk from Chelsea railway station.                                                          Everyone is welcome to attend, and our services are designed to be understandable, relevant and enjoyable for those who have had no previous church experience. We want the worship of our creator God to be a meaningful experience and a glorifying one to Him.

The Arts.

Freeway loves using artistic expression and endeavour to enrich our lives. We believe in the power of art to capture the heart and express life experiences in a way that words alone cannot. The Freeway Music Team (as seen at The Chelsea Carols In The Park) performs contemporary, relevant celebration music every Sunday. Freeway's very own Footprints Theatre Company also performs on a regular basis at our Sunday meetings.
