Over two thousand years ago, beneath the stillness of a night sky, a group of shepherds wearily watched their sheep. Then, the darkness broke. A majestic host of angels filled the sky with a burst of light and a bold melody: “Glory to God in the highest!” Their heavenly song declared the best news of all—the Saviour of the world had been born. In an instant, the shepherds’ weary serenity was transformed into eternal hope and wondrous joy.
Just like those shepherds on that first Christmas night, this year, we invite you to join us as we celebrate the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Come experience the glory, the peace, and the transformative joy of Christmas.




Experience the Gloria in all its brilliance! Our Christmas Grand Services are Coastal Church’s largest and most spectacular annual Christmas event at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. This event is a joyful, family-friendly evening featuring inspiring music, dramatic arts, and a powerful message designed to fill you with the wonder of the season. We invite you to join us as we celebrate the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Come experience the glory, the peace, and the transformative joy of Christmas.
