Ways WE DO

Community

  • The large, corporate gathering of our church community every Sunday. Our gatherings are always centred on worshipping God, encountering the power of God and connecting with others.

  • Groups are small gatherings of 10-25 people who meet in person or online to hang, pray together, encourage one another.

  • Join a team today to begin making a difference and find your purpose while serving others. We can all play a part in what God is doing no matter our age or background.

Brent & Patricia Douglas

Prophet Brent & Patricia Douglas have been the senior pastors of Encounter Church for more than 30 years. They have been married for 40+ years and have five children and a growing number of grandchildren. 

Together they lead Encounter Church in Auckland, and provide pastoral oversight to our church plants in Bream Bay and Levin. They both have a strong desire to see people experience dynamic encounters with the Holy Spirit, discover their giftings and be inspired to rise to the call of God for their lives.

Pastor Brent has travelled extensively, nationally and internationally, releasing the power of the Holy Spirit to bring renewal to churches. His ministry has been characterised by strong prophetic flows and has resulted in him now being internationally recognised as an apostle and prophet.
