Who are we

ACCR (Australian Christian Church Roselands) is The Greek Church of God church which started with Pastor Nick Kola, Kerry Theodore and George Kaisharis in Feb 1958 relaunched in 2010 as ACCR under Pastor Andrew Kola and Francesca Kola.

The transition from a Greek speaking church to an English-speaking multinational church was overdue. The change was made over one week, with the very next church service held was all in English.

Since then we have enjoyed encouraging both the original Greek congregation of whom we have retained, and new members alike.

Our church services consist of a time of worship, followed by the preaching from the word of God, finishing with a time of fellowship coffee/tea and an assortment of things to eat.

Pastors Andrew & Fran Kola

Andrew started in this church as the second child of Nick and Glory Kola. He grew up in this church and married Francesca having two sons & a daughter.

After 35 years in this church he moved to Petersham AOG where he served in several capacities for 15 years including a board member.

In 2009 after hearing Gods call to ministry Andrew moved back to this church to take over from his father in February 2010.

Francesca started serving in this church after marrying Andrew. She services in the capacity of Children’s Ministry, worship Leader and continues today in the same.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
