Regeneration Church Monash

What Regeneration Church Monash does

Regeneration Church Monash is a nonprofit religious organisation incorporated in Victoria, Australia under the name Regeneration Church Monash Incorporated, founded in 2017 by Senior Pastor Stephen Tan in Clayton, a suburb SBS has named the most ethnically diverse in Australia. The church operates in the Baptist tradition and positions itself as gospel-centred, transcultural, and missional. Its core offering is a portfolio of three concurrent Sunday services from a single site at 118 Wellington Rd, Clayton VIC 3168: a 10am Morning Service (English-speaking families with an integrated children's programme), a 2pm Mandarin Service for the Chinese-speaking community, and a 5pm Night Service for university students and young adults that incorporates a shared meal. Underpinning these is a network of 20+ Missional Communities (MCs), weekly small groups meeting in homes across Clayton, Mulgrave, Dandenong, Noble Park, Upwey, Ferntree Gully, Burwood, and Wantirna, organised by demographic and language (general, student, African fellowship, Mandarin).

The organisation does not operate proprietary technology. Its digital infrastructure consists of a content website (regeneration.org.au), a YouTube channel (@RegenerationMonash) carrying live streams and an archive of 15+ sermon series covering biblical books and topical themes, a Spotify podcast distribution of the same teaching content, and a Facebook presence for community engagement. Administrative functions (member login, giving) run on the third-party Elvanto Church Management System. A separate Safe Ministry Check compliance account is maintained. The children's ministry is split into Sprouts (toddlers and pre-schoolers, ~2-5 years) and Buds (school-aged, ~5-12 years), each running during the sermon segment for roughly 45 minutes to an hour.

The revenue model is non-commercial: income derives from voluntary member giving (tithes and offerings), held across segregated bank accounts for the Morning, Mandarin, and Night congregations, with additional accounts for mission giving and general purposes and international ACH transfer support. A secondary, smaller revenue stream comes from Venue Hire, where the church facility (kitchen, café area, multimedia equipment) is made available to members, affiliated Christian organisations, and select external parties for aligned events such as services, conferences, weddings, and funerals. The organisation is privately held (nonprofit), headquartered in Clayton, and serves the state of Victoria, Australia, with senior leadership drawn from Moody Bible Institute alumni and external pastoral networks including Together for Clayton and Beyond and City to City Australia.
