Friends and faith

The Salvation Army Perth Chinese Corps is a warm and vibrant community where friendships flourish and faith is explored together.

Join us for worship and community

Your officer is Captain Cherry Ip.

 

We meet every Sunday at 10.00am for a bilingual worship service filled with celebration, music, prayer, and a message from the Bible. It's a time to connect deeply with God and with one another in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Contact us to enquire about any of our activities. 

Our community stays connected throughout the week with: 

  • Prayer meetings
  • Bible studies
  • Social gatherings
  • Group exercise activities

Together, we’re growing in faith and building strong relationships in a Christ-centred, supportive community.

From darkness to light

I came to the Perth Chinese Corps in financial hardship and was homeless. I was "illegally" living in Perth and being exploited by my "employers" because of my "status". I came to The Salvation Army looking for help.
 
They helped me out of this darkness by leading me to the light and hope of Christ. With the help of the church, I returned home to the city of Nanning, in China, with Christ as my personal Saviour, and with a Bible and some money for my journey. 
I'm forever grateful.

My family settled

Myyself, my wife and our two young children — originally from China — arrived in Perth via Melbourne. In Perth, we were "discovered" as illegal residents and came to The Salvation Army for help. 
Straight away, we connected with the church services, and attended every Sunday worship meetings. 
 
After two years of appealing to the immigration minister, we received refugee status and returned to Melbourne. Here, we continue to attend a Salvation Army church and are so grateful for the assistance we received.

English class helped me

I have very much enjoyed the English program at the Salvos. Knowing it has been going for more than 10 years gave me comfort the teachings would help me.
 
And they did! The class supported me with both practical and conversational English, as well as intercultural communication and understanding.
 
I appreciated this time to learn and practice with others.
