About Church By the Bay
Church By the Bay can be found on the Bellarine Peninsula and we recently celebrated our 30th birthday. Our vision is “That every person on the Bellarine gets to hear the Gospel”.
As a church, we have a strong emphasis on our cluster groups, smaller places where people gather weekly around the bible, share the Word and pray to encourage each other in following Christ. As a church, we’ve intentionally sought to develop a culture of discipleship and mission, with many of our young people going on local missions as well as interstate and overseas. We seek to build connections and work collaboratively with the Church across our region. We want to continue to see the gospel of Jesus make a holistic impact in our region and beyond.
CBtB is blessed to have a strong cohort of young people (from late primary and into their mid-20’s) who are involved in our flourishing Youth and Young Adults ministry programs.
