Equippers Church East Auckland is a Sunday gathering of the Equippers network, held at the Waipuna Conference Centre, 58 Waipuna Road, in Mount Wellington. The listing gives the Cole Theatre at the Waipuna Hotel as the venue. The church is part of a network that the website says has more than 75 churches across 20 countries. It is led by Pastors Sam and Kathy Monk, who have led Equippers since 2000.
The church offers a private space for new parents and their babies, with a live stream of the service into that room. Children are checked in at the Equippers Kids desk in the school hall next door. Egroups meet during the week for connection and encouragement. A customer on Google describes a great community, a friendly and welcoming church family, and a place that feels like home. The website sets out the church's statement of beliefs, which covers the Bible, baptism and the Holy Spirit.
