About Us

It's 'Church' in a Fresh, New Way!

The Vine is a new church working in the Rototuna suburb of Hamilton and supported by Hamilton Central Baptist Church.

The Vine is out and about in the North Hamilton neighbourhood providing people with the opportunity to Make the Connection - to Jesus and the wider community. We're 'doing church' in a new, fresh way . . . and it's fun!

The Vine runs a range of activities and events at our community Resource Centre. We also facilitate other programmes  like play groups, women's groups, men's gatherings, home groups, fun community events and community church services.

The Vine's 'hub' is our community Resource Centre at 272 Borman Road in Rototuna. We're open several mornings each week and offer a great range of fun activities that allow you to meet your neighbours and learn about Christianity in a relaxing environment.

Why are we called ‘The Vine?’

The Vine is a Christian organisation and we desire to help people Make the Connection to Jesus, who once said:

“I am the Vine, you are the branches. When you're joined with me - and I with you - the relationship intimate and organic, the harvest is sure to be abundant.

“Separated, you can't produce a thing. . . if you make yourselves at home with me and my words are at home in you, you can be sure that whatever you ask will be listened to and acted upon.” (Message Bible, John 15:5)

The Vine is helping people in the Rototuna suburb of Hamilton to discover how great life can be when you have a strong relationship with Jesus and meaningful, fun friendships with your neighbours and the wider community.
