Welcome

The Church in Cape Town

The church in Cape Town, South Africa, warmly welcomes you. We are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ who have personally received Him as our Savior. He is the most excellent and enjoyable Person. We love Him and endeavor to give Him the first place in all things. We rejoice to be cleansed by the blood of Jesus, God’s Son, born again of the Father’s divine life, and filled with the Holy Spirit.

About Us

The church in Cape Town isn't our name - it's our description. As such, it's an inclusive title, not an exclusive one. We gather together simply as believers of the Lord in this city, and we receive as our brothers and sisters all who believe in Jesus Christ. Likewise, we warmly welcome guests and visitors who are not Christians.In the 1980s, a group of believers in Christ began to meet as "the church in Cape Town," a local expression of the Body of Christ according to the New Testament principle of "one city, one church"—Rev 1:11; Acts 14:23; Titus 1:5.

As individual believers in Christ, we seek to live a life that glorifies our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ, denying ungodliness and putting off the "old man" to live according to the life and nature of Christ who indwells us.

As members of the Body of Christ, we seek to live a corporate life by laying aside all distinctions and divisive practices, expressing the one, universal Body of Christ in a practical, local way but in fellowship with all the local churches on the earth. We have been especially helped, both individually and collectively, by the ministry of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee, and wholeheartedly recommend their ministry to all seekers of the Lord.For further information on meeting times and places, please visit our contact page.

Children's service
Our toddlers and children are very precious to us. That's why we seek to help the little ones among us develop into young men and women who love Jesus Christ, know the Bible, and seek God's kingdom first.
The Lord's supper and teaching
As believers in Christ who love and serve Him, we enjoy the Lord's supper each Lord's Day. Following our worship of the Father, we share with one another what we have enjoyed in the Scriptures in an open session of mutual teaching and encouragement.
Spiritual companionship
Prayerful spiritual relationships of two or three believers fuel our Christian life and enable us to be Christ's witnesses. We value these companionships highly and take every opportunity to encourage,strengthen, and sustain them.
Young people's gatherings
We are stongly commited to the spiritual development of our next generation. We keep our high school students' lives meaningful by providing an atmosphere rich with God's Word, healthy companionships, and young people's bible camps.

Our Life

We maintain a vibrant and active life. Whether you're a growing family or a student, single or retired, we give you a place to live, grow, and serve as an indispensable member of Christ's Body.

Small-group life
Gather with believers in your neighborhood for dinner, singing, mutual Bible study, prayer, and daily fellowship.

Student groups
We desire young men and women to be useful to the Master (2 Tim 2:21). For this we have Bible studies at the campuses of University of Cape Town, University of the Western Cape, and Stellenbosch University and also family-hosted groups near these universities.
Special events
We hold retreats, conferences, and special trainings that are aimed at knowing and experiencing Christ and building His church.
