Bayside Church International, Victor Harbor

Bayside Church International was birthed in mid-2002 as a joint venture between two churches from Adelaide’s southern suburbs; Impact Christian Church, and Coastlands. This partnership in ‘church planting’ was due in part to a strong relational connection held by both congregations at the time with a world-wide Apostolic Team known as New Covenant Ministries International (NCMI).
Like our friends before us, Bayside Church is an autonomous (or ‘institutionally independent’) Christian community that shares friendship and partnership with a significant number of like-minded ministries and churches globally.
Some of these are listed on the ‘Our Friends’ page of our website.

Simply put; we are big Jesus-fans. We believe that our great purpose in life is to know Him and show Him… to know God in personal and intimate reality, and to work together with Him so we

can make Him known to others. Because of this, we place a significant emphasis on the supernatural ministry of God’s Spirit, and hold an unwavering commitment to the solid truth revealed in His Scriptures. At the same time, we endeavor to reveal Christ in a real and relevant way to our world; which affects how we present ourselves as a church community, and how we conduct ourselves as the church in the community.

A New Venue in 2011. From small and humble beginnings in a hired High School drama room, we have over the years enjoyed steady, strong and stable growth, to the point where we have outgrown our second Sunday Meeting venue at Encounter Centre. In April 2010, Council Approval was granted us to renovate a 650sqm warehouse as a permanent home for us to operate from. This has effectively provide us with the region's largest contemporary church auditorium and room to grow into the future when required.
