A Church Alive in the Power of the Holy Spirit

Growing as disciplesof Christ

At Philadelphia International Church, spiritual growth is not rushed or superficial. We believe growth happens as believers are rooted in the Word of God, shaped through prayer, and led by the Holy Spirit into maturity.

We provide spaces for learning, prayer, and personal discipleship, where faith is formed deeply and lives are aligned with God’s purposes.

Bible Study

Our Bible Study gatherings are held every Friday, except the fourth Friday of the month, at Pastor Michael’s home.

These sessions are centred on prayer and the careful study of Scripture, where we explore the Word of God in depth, including insights from the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures, while remaining sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit.

This is a space to grow in understanding, ask questions, and be grounded firmly in biblical truth in a Spirit-filled environment.

For the address and details, please contact the church by phone or email.

Prayer Gatherings

Watchmen on the Wall – Gideon’s Night Vigil Prayer

Once every month, on the fourth Friday, we gather for an extended night of prayer from 9:30 PM to 1:30 AM.

This gathering is a call to intercessors, prayer warriors, and all who are hungry for God. We come together as watchmen on the wall, standing in the gap for our city, our nation, our families, and the next generation.

These nights are marked by consecration, repentance, intercession, and waiting on the Lord. We seek God together, allowing Him to search our hearts, align our lives, and speak with prophetic clarity and direction.

“I have set watchmen on your walls… they shall never be silent.”
Isaiah 62:6–7

Gideon’s Night Vigil Prayer
When: Fourth Friday of every month, 9:30 PM to 1:30 AM
Where: New Brighton Union Church
24 Union Street, New Brighton, Christchurch

Come prayerful. Come expectant. Come ready to stand in the gap and hear from the Lord together.

Spiritual growth andpastoral care

Spiritual growth also happens through personal discipleship and care.

Biblical counselling, prayer support, and teaching on the gifts of the Holy Spirit are available through the church. These are offered to help believers grow in maturity, healing, discernment, and service according to Scripture.

If you are seeking guidance, prayer, or personal pastoral support, you are welcome to contact the church and speak directly with Pastor Michael.
