Who we are
Welcome to Kruger Parade Baptist Church!
Our normal weekly church services are Sunday mornings at 9:30am and Sunday evenings at 5pm. We’d love to have you come along and be a part of the service and stick around afterwards so that we can get to know you. The team who put on our morning tea come up with some delicious food and many people who become part of our church family found they connected with someone through a cup of tea or coffee after the service.
When you do come we will try to introduce you to any people or services that can make your visit a welcome one. If you are bringing a family, our morning service includes a creche and Sunday school program for the children and youth as well.
During the week we have a wide variety of activities for you and your family to get involved in. Check out the kids, youth and adult groups that currently run and see what suits you best.
If you’re new to Christianity or have some questions you’d like to ask, we’d love to chat. You can call the church office or send us a message from our Contact Us page.
We look forward to getting to know you!

Kruger Parade Baptist Church Service Times
Sunday Mornings – 9:30am
Each Sunday Morning we meet at 9:30am in our main church sanctuary at 2 Henderson Street, Redbank. Our Sunday mornings are a great introduction to the Kruger family. We are a tremendous mix of ages as well as people at all stages of life. One of the compliments we get is the wide range of people you will meet at Kruger Baptist.
Come along and dip your toe in the water. We would love to point you in the right direction if you have a need or would like to connect with a particular part of the church family. Sunday mornings are great for families as we have a Creche for the little ones, Kids Church for our school age children and an opportunity for everyone to mix in the hall after the service. The great grassed area out the front is fenced so the children can run around while Mum and Dad meet some new people over coffee or tea.
Sunday Evenings – 5pm
If you find a Sunday Evening suits your week then come along to worship and hear a great message at 5pm in the evening. A lot of our young adults will come in the evening so its a great time to catch up with friends after church.
If you hit the right night you will also come along and find there is a low-cost dinner provided after the service. The supporters of our RAGE Youth Group put on a dinner every second week and for about $5 you can enjoy a great meal with a drink.
It's been more than 6 years since the last service times update. Please make sure to contact the church to confirm service times.

Each week you’ll be able to play games, join in activities, meet great people and learn that the leaders think you’re awesome but God thinks you’re even better! The HYPE team think it’s really important for young people to have fun while learning about God and also want kids to know that God is with them in the ups and downs of life as being a kid can be tricky sometimes.

Kruger Parade Baptist Church History
Starting in 1965
Kruger Parade Baptist Church had its beginnings back in 1965 with the start of the Gailes Baptist Fellowship. In 1987 the Gailes church merged with the Redbank Plains Fellowship that had begun meeting two years earlier, to become the Redbank Plains / Gailes Baptist Fellowship.
Remember the 80s and 90s!
In 1988 the church bought the 10 acre property on Kruger Parade at Redbank where it meets today. Construction work commenced in November 1991 and the first Sunday service was held on June 14, 1992. With the new location came the new name; Kruger Parade Baptist Church.
An ‘Adventure of Faith’
The building project was a great adventure, starting with the ‘Adventure of Faith’ campaign that raised around half a million dollars to see the church facility built. Then came the adventures of; clearing the land, planning the building and constructing what we have today. It’s nothing short of a miracle, as so many people sacrificed so much to see this all take place. There was endless prayer along the way and miracles seemed to follow as God went before the church to bring together a very resourceful and skilful group of people to build the church over an 8 month period.
Over the years, our church focus has always been to glorify God and to grow people in their faith and commitment to Jesus Christ. We’ve seen many different faces, children raised to adults, families and communities helped and supported. God has been so good as we’ve seen a regular flow of people coming to know Jesus, baptisms and stories of spiritual growth and the work of God in people’s lives.
The 2011 Floods
We’ve always been a church with a heart to help those in need around us. During the 2011 flood disaster, the church became a hub for receiving and giving household items for those who were affected. We’ve also had a strong connection with helping our community through counseling, food hampers, pastoral care and the Life Keys courses that have seen hundreds of participants grow and develop in their personal and spiritual lives.
Stepping Out Internationally
Our work internationally continues to grow as, for many years, we’ve been strong supporters of Harland House, a boarding house for deaf students in Fiji. Work teams have travelled to Fiji to help and we support an outreach ministry in Fiji through Frank and Robyn Hawks. We are also investing in the work of Love International as they’ve developed a school and future medical facility in Mozambique and have held a number of outreach ministries over the years.
Loving Our Community
Major events have also played a significant role in making us who we are, from: Easter festivals, Christmas concerts, church camps, dinners, fundraising and working together on floats for the Jacaranda Festival. We’ve always been a church that’s active and seeking out ways to build our community through many types of activities. We’ve always had a strong focus on children and youth, at one stage even having a bus run that brought children to Sunday School. Over the years we’ve had playgroup, Sunday school, kids clubs, VBS holiday programs, youth groups, camps and kids games, all investing in the lives of children and families, helping them to grow and supporting them wherever possible.
We Believe In a Future Vision
As a church, we look forward to writing the next chapters in our story, our Adventure of Faith, as we listen to God and follow His lead in our lives individually and as a whole family. Will you join us?

Help my unbelief
Dear God, help my unbelief. When I'm in pain, I forget that you care about me. I forget that you have helped me through my trials. I forget that you hold me in your arms to keep me safe. I forget that you are feeling my pain with me. I forget that you love me, I forget that I am important to you. Show me your presence - let me feel your enveloping love. Heal my hurting soul. Thank you for staying with me even in my unbelief.
