At Wayside, we live on the intersection between love and hate, between faith and no faith, between the haves and the have nots, the housed and the homeless, the sick and the well. We want to live on this intersection between love and hate in a way that helps love prevail. It is a vision that is always before us and always calling us to be more.
Our door is open 7 days a week for all of our neighbours regardless of their circumstances. Through opportunities to connect, we see that moments of transformation can and do happen, and that they move people towards health and healing.

Wayside is the iconic coffee-table book from Wayside Chapel written by Pastor Emeritus Rev. Graham Long. A triumph of community and a testament to the strength and diversity of the unique characters that call Kings Cross home, Wayside is a book that reaches right into the soul of Sydney.

Wayside Chapel expanded its care beyond its building and onto the streets to ensure support was provided to those who are most marginalised, isolated and at risk, especially those dealing with homelessness. New street outreach teams were mobilised during the COVID-19 lockdown to deliver food and care packs to people experiencing homelessness, as well as to front doors of people who are house-bound at home, but still in of need of care and connection.
Operates daily from 2pm – 9pm in Kings Cross and Mon – Fri 2pm – 9pm in Bondi
The Aboriginal Cultural Centre is a new program that is designed to support our Aboriginal visitors moving from a state of trauma to reconnecting with their cultural strengths. The program is guided by the Aboriginal Healing Framework, which utilises holistic, culturally safe, strength-based approach to engage visitors and improve their wellbeing. Indigenous visitors are invited into this safe space for connection, activities and engagement in a culturally intelligent and trauma-informed way.
