Welcome to the Church of the Holy Name!
We believe that all are called to be on a spiritual journey and what matters is not where a person is on that journey, but actually being on the journey itself. Therefore, we seek to welcome all people.
Where do I start?
Join us for Mass on Sunday! We'd like you to join us in person, but another way to join us online. We stream our Sunday 8:30am Mass every week, click here to watch!

What about my kids?
ou’re welcome to bring your children with you to Services. Or, if you’d prefer, we have Wee One’s Word (WOW) which is church for wee ones, during the 9am Mass (year round).
We also have SHINE during the 9am and 11:15am Sunday Services. SHINE is for elementary-aged children, takes place on the lower level (auditorium) and parents are asked to drop their children off (and sign them in) before Mass begins. Children (who are receiving Communion, or those preparing for the Sacrament) will then join their families upstairs at Mass at the mid-way point (other children can remain downstairs for the duration of Mass, at the discretion of their parents).

Ministries
The Sunday traditional Anglican Church Family Service is our main ministry at Holy Name. This is the time when we come together as Gods family to worship our Lord and Saviour and to grow in our knowledge and love of him. It is in this time that we come to be renewed in our faith and restored so we can go out and serve God in his world.
Traditional unsung Eucharist followed by fellowship tea.
Saturday afternoon prayer service and informal bible teaching and practice. Please come and join one of our services

About Us
The Church of the Holy Name in Tembisa East, Tembisa is a warm and caring church with a family feeling. It is also a healing and praying parish with a rich texture of groups. Parishioners are involved in outreach and ‘Kingdom work’ in many areas such as poverty alleviation and hospital visiting (including support to AIDS orphans). Committed to scripturally-based teaching and ministry we believe that every member of the church is called to some task or ministry. The parish believes in the continuous development of people. We welcome you and encourage you to become a part of our community, reaching out with us to a needy world with the abundance of God’s love.
We are an Anglican Church in the Diocese of the Highveld which is part of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. Holy Name is a dynamic, vibrant, diverse and loving community. We find ourselves in a time of rapid change, both in our own church and the world around us. These changes are often exciting and inspiring, but can also involve painful loss and uncertainty. We believe that the God we worship – the God who reigns supreme in the universe – calls and equips us with gifts of grace for ministry at this moment in history. As we face many new challenges that offer wonderful opportunities for mission and ministry, we trust that God will lead His Church by walking beside us and living in us, always to the honour and glory of His name.
Jesus challenges us to cast our nets into the deep, where we will be able to catch fish. If we accept this challenge to “go deep” our nets will be so full that they will reach breaking point. It is then that we need to trust Him sufficiently to know that we can, like the disciples, leave everything behind and follow Him, who is our Master, our Guide, our Protector and our Sustainer. We believe that we can be flexible enough to adapt our methods and strategies according to contemporary needs, ONLY if our trust is firmly rooted in an unchanging Christ, in the One who is forever the same.
In everything we do, we strive to be centered and focused on Christ. Christ who is for all times, and contemporary with all times, ever present, utterly dependable, whose compassion and caring are unfailing.
