Hobart City has had a long history of being a community of believers who think and act beyond themselves. While the quantity and flavour of these missionary adventures have changed over time, Hobart City Church continues to support and partner with:
Global Mission Partners (GMP) has been investing in life-changing partnerships with churches, individuals and communities both overseas and within Australia for over 125 years. Formerly known as Australian Churches of Christ Overseas Mission Board Inc. their story began in 1891 as the Churches of Christ Foreign Missions Committee. Our current Senior Minister served with them as National Director of the Discipleship Development Program (DDP).
Ping Pong-A-Thon is a fundraising & advocacy movement, seeking to combat human trafficking and the exploitation of young people in South East Asia through a series of 24-hour table tennis (ping-pong) events held annually. Hobart City has been supporting this for more than a decade. In 2024 we raised over $11,000.
Thread Together is an Australian based charity which takes the excessive waste of the modern fashion industry, and pivots it towards helping the most vulnerable in our society - providing brand new clothes for those in need. We partner with Thread Together to serve our community through the Hobart Clothing Hub.
Operation Christmas Child is a hands-on way for you to bless children in need across the world by filling shoeboxes with toys, hygiene items, school supplies, and fun gifts. We collect the boxes and distribute them in the name of Jesus Christ to children living in vulnerable situations. Last year we packed over 300.
Open Hands Nubeena is a community food bank operated by the Nubeena Church of Christ, serving over 100 families each week with emergency food support. We support this ministry financially, and practically through the collection of food items.
Gospel For Asia has, since 1979, been committed to serving the “least of these” in Asia, often in places where no one else is serving, so they can experience the love of God for the first time. GFA supports national workers serving as the hands and feet of Christ.
Established in 1852, HCM was the first City Mission in Australia and is the third oldest Mission in the world. HCM offers assistance to those who need it most in the Southern Tasmanian community by providing emotional, physical and financial support and guidance.
