Nepali Church

A vision to see the Nepali community in Hurstville and beyond come to know Jesus and enjoy fellowship with God and each other, by starting a new Nepali speaking church.

The Nepali population in Sydney is growing rapidly. Many Nepali people live in the Hurstville area and to reach them with the gospel, a Nepali language ministry is needed. In July 2025 we started a Nepali speaking service, in partnership with St George's Hurstville and St Luke’s UNCC (St Luke’s United Nepali Christian Church).

If you would like to experience Nepali church for yourself, or if you know Nepali friends who might be interested, come along! We worship God together, learn from God’s word and encourage and support each other. Afterwards stay for a simple Nepali meal.

St George’s Hurstville Nepali Church service details

Time: Saturday 5:30pm, followed by a simple Nepali meal
Address: 2 The Avenue, Hurstville

Meet Bijaya

Bijaya is a Nepali Christian who came to know Jesus from a Hindu background as a university student in 2000.

Having spent many years in Nepal serving churches in various ways, he and his family came to Australia in 2020 for Bijaya to study at the Sydney Missionary and Bible College. After going through theological training and seeing both the need for sound biblical teaching and the opportunity to reach out to the Nepali community in Sydney, he and his wife Kate felt convicted to use their gifts and experience to serve the Nepali community in Sydney.

He is excited to partner with churches in Sydney to see the gospel go out amongst the Nepali community.
