Carey Group

At Carey we attempt the extraordinary. We are named after the pioneering Baptist missionary William Carey, who famously urged, ‘Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God,’ advice Carey has sought to live by. It has birthed a remarkable community where hope, compassion, family and learning are valued and fostered, and we have been able to celebrate many successes along the way. We began in 1996, when a handful of pioneers, with a median age of just 25, committed to build a church that was turned inside out. Led by Pastor Steve Izett, they dreamt of a place which would be a home for the community, one where faith in God doesn’t provide an excuse to escape from the world, but is a springboard for relevant and active engagement with it.
