Pastor Phil Pringle is the Senior Minister of one of Australia's fastest growing, exciting and powerful churches. 1980 saw Phil and his wife Christine arrive in Sydney Australia from New Zealand, armed with faith and a vision to build a contemporary, vibrant church that would grow and impact a city for Christ.
Today, 27 years later, Christian City Church (Oxford Falls) is one of Australia's largest churches with over 5,000 members. The church is made up of many departments, each reflecting Pastor Phil's original passion to liberate a city and nation through the life-transforming Gospel of Jesus Christ through every available relevant means. Pastor Phil has always projected the vision of planting new congregations, especially in major cities around the world. Today, Dr Pringle oversees the approximately 177 churches that make up Christian City Church International throughout the world.
Christian City Church Oxford Falls has a School of Ministry, developing powerful ministries for the future; a School of Creative Arts developing ministries in the Arts; Pastoral Care and Counselling College; Christian City Television - a television studio creating high quality material for weekly broadcasts; Christian City Worships, a record label, producing and distributing world-wide original and contemporary praise and worship coming out of this congregation.
The keys to this growth are vision, faith, moving in the Spirit and development of leadership. Phil is a pastor, preacher, songwriter, artist, author and leader. He maintains an uncompromised passion to see cities changed by a contemporary, relevant and anointed church of God; and he shares his message in a down-to-earth manner, using humour and a sensitivity to the dynamics of the Holy Spirit.
In his meetings, Phil has seen powerful moves of God, the glory of God filling the atmosphere. People are touched by the Holy Spirit. As a result, many have been saved and lives have been totally changed.
The winds of revival are blowing, so come expecting to receive a fresh touch from God.
