Central House Update for 2026

Wellington Central Baptist has made the difficult decision to close the current iteration of Central House at the end of 2025. Therefore, we are not accepting applications for 2026. 

We are aware that this is a loss for Christian families and young people across Aotearoa. Central House has existed in different forms since the 1940s. The church is continuing to dream and listen to God about its future in student and young adult ministry in Wellington, with care for students remaining a guiding star for the church in practice and principle. Central Baptist will continue to welcome students and young professionals that call Wellington their home and will be exploring alternative accommodation options for the future.
