Port Douglas

Port Douglas

Port Douglas sits just up the coast from Cairns, a stunning seaside town known for its relaxed atmosphere, beautiful beaches, and steady flow of locals, workers, and travellers. It’s close enough to feel connected to the rhythm of Cairns, yet distinct enough to have its own heartbeat. And in a place like that—where people come searching for rest, purpose, and community—the need for the hope of Jesus is real and urgent.

At Freedom Church Cairns, we carry a genuine burden for our region, not just our own postcode. Port Douglas is part of our backyard, and we believe God has placed it within our reach for a reason. Many who live and work there feel isolated, transient, or disconnected. Others have grown up in the area but long for a stronger sense of purpose and belonging. We see that, and we care. Our heart is to serve, encourage, and strengthen people—whether they’re long-term locals, seasonal staff, or visitors passing through.

As a church, we’re praying and preparing for greater impact in Port Douglas. That means being present, building relationships, and offering practical help and spiritual support wherever we can. We want to see people encounter the love of Christ in a way that transforms homes, workplaces, and daily life. We want to raise leaders who can stand strong in their faith and help shape the future of their town. And we want to partner with anyone who shares that vision for renewal and hope.

Cairns and Port Douglas aren’t just neighbouring towns—they’re part of one region that needs the gospel. We’re committed to stepping into that space with humility, courage, and conviction, trusting that God will open doors and guide our steps. If you’re from Port Douglas, or have a heart for that community, we’d love to connect with you and walk this journey together.
