What Is SNAC (St George North Anglican Church)?

SNAC is the shortened name for St George North Anglican Church, a reformed evangelical Anglican church in the St George area of Sydney, Australia. The name combines letters from "St (George) North Anglican Church." The church describes itself as being "all about Jesus," welcomes people from many backgrounds, and holds services at three locations: Carlton, Bexley North and Bexley. If you are looking for a church to visit, want to explore the Christian faith, or are checking whether SNAC is the right fit for your family, the details below cover what it offers and how to get in touch.

What SNAC Is and What It Stands For

SNAC identifies itself as a reformed, evangelical church. Its stated mission is to glorify God by proclaiming Jesus, growing disciples and serving together. The church says it values the Bible, teaches it as the word of God, and considers it relevant to how people live today. It also encourages every member to serve according to their gifts and says it aims to make disciples of all nations.

In practical terms, this identity shapes what you will find there: Bible-focused teaching (including a sermon library of past talks), a course for people exploring Christianity, and a range of children's, youth and adult activities.

Where SNAC Meets

SNAC gathers at three locations in Sydney's St George area. The Sunday service times differ by site:

Bexley is different: the church meets there every second Wednesday for a traditional Anglican prayerbook service, rather than on Sundays. If you are planning a first visit and want your children to join a program, the Carlton morning services or the Bexley North service are the options to consider; the Carlton 6:30pm service has no kids program.

Activities During the Week and Beyond Sunday

Beyond Sunday services, the site lists several mid-week and specialist activities:

• Life course – an informal, relaxed setting to find out more about Jesus. It runs at various times of day and week throughout the year, so check the church's details for the next course.
• Children's and youth ministry – activities on Sundays and during the week for preschool, primary school and high school aged young people.
• Gospel teams – including daytime women's gospel teams.
• Jitterbugz, Kids Plus and SNAC Youth – named programs listed on the site alongside the main service and course sections.
• Events – a dedicated events section on the website.

The site also has pages for the staff team, supporting the church, and a sermon library where past Bible talks can be listened to.
