A small church with a big heart for Tarneit
We're a Pentecostal church family in Melbourne's west — ordinary people from many nations who worship together, look out for each other, and bring practical care to our neighbours.
The name says it all: a vision for community
Vision Pentecostal Church of Community was incorporated in April 2016 and registered as a charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission that same year. We meet on Sundays at the Tarneit Community Learning Centre on Sunset Views Boulevard — right in the middle of one of the fastest-growing and most multicultural corners of Australia.
Our vision comes from Psalm 68:6 — “God sets the lonely in families.” That verse shapes everything on this site. On Sundays it looks like worship, preaching and friendship. Through the week it looks like seminars for young people, support for new mums, food for widows and orphans, and standing with families when life falls apart.
We are proudly Pentecostal — which for us simply means we believe God's Spirit still fills, heals and empowers ordinary people today.
Simple faith, lived out loud
You don't need to agree with every point to belong here. But if you're wondering what we're about, this is it.
The Bible is God's Word
Trustworthy, true and alive — the foundation for everything we preach, teach and do.
Jesus is Lord
Jesus Christ — His death and resurrection — is our hope. Salvation is a gift of grace for anyone who believes.
The Spirit empowers
God's Spirit still fills, guides and gifts ordinary people today — that's what makes us Pentecostal.
Prayer changes things
We pray with and for our community — for healing, provision, wisdom and hope.
The church is a family
Not a building or a service — a household where nobody walks through hard seasons alone.
Faith that works
Real love rolls up its sleeves: practical care, shared meals and standing with people in crisis.
Led by Pastor Alex Hakizimana
Vision is led by Pastor Alex Hakizimana, together with the church's leadership team. Alex is known across Wyndham's community networks — you'll find his name on Tarneit community listings — and he's the kind of pastor who remembers your name, your kids and your prayer points.
The church has no paid staff. Everything you see on this site — the seminars, the food care, the crisis support — is carried out by members who give their time willingly.
