About Our Church
You will discover that we are a community of people from many different backgrounds who have been united for one cause – to know & love God & fulfil His purposes in our generation.
As a local church, our purpose is to honour God & make disciples. We want to see a transformed town filled with God-honouring disciples who impact the world.
We Invite You to Experience the Benefit of Being Part of a Spiritual Family.
We Exist to Honour God!
As a local church, our purpose is to honour God & make disciples. We want to see a transformed town filled with God-honouring disciples who impact the world.
Furthermore, we understand that Jesus said the greatest commandment was to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind & strength”
(Mark 12:29-31).
So in a brief restating of that scripture and the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-19), we believe the key to fulfilling God’s purposes for our lives & this church is to let everything we do be initiated, motivated, & sustained by this incredible love.

When you hear the word church you may think of a building with a cross on top, a religious organisation, or even a worship service. The New Testament Greek word for church, ekklesia, always referred to an assembly of people, not a building. The church in the New Testament was first & foremost a spiritual family.
You will discover that we are a community of people from many different backgrounds & who have been united for one cause – to know & love God & fulfil His purposes in our generation.
Every Nation Mossel Bay is a member of the worldwide Every Nation family of churches. Every Nation exists to honour God by establishing Christ-Centered, Spirit-Empowered & Socially Responsible Churches & Campus Ministries in Every Nation.
In this community, you will learn that serving one another is a joyful & mutual way of life under divine authority & that here your life & gifting can grow in Jesus through discipleship. This family is committed to faith in action, to living authentic, intentional, Spirit-led lives; to sharing the truth of God’s word with all people; & to developing fully devoted followers of Christ who will go for Him!
It is our desire to help you flourish in life & find your place in church life!
statement of faith
In the Holy Scriptures as originally given by God, divinely inspired, infallible, entirely trustworthy, & the supreme authority in all matters of faith & conduct.
In one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, & Holy Spirit.
Manifest in the flesh, his virgin birth, sinless human life, divine miracles, vicarious & atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension, mediatorial work, & personal return in power and glory.
In the salvation of lost & sinful man through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ by faith apart from works, & regeneration by the Holy Spirit.
In the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the believer is enabled to live a holy life, to witness & work for the Lord Jesus Christ.
In the resurrection of both the saved & the lost: they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, & they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
1. Lordship
We Value Obedience.
Because Jesus is “King of kings and Lord of lords,” we believe that whole-hearted submission to God’s will & His Word is the starting point of the Christian faith & the foundation of all spiritual growth.
Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him . . . (Colossians 2:6)
2. Evangelism
We Value Lost People.
Because God’s heart is to reach the lost, we seek to build churches primarily through evangelism—not transfer, through birth—not adoption.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19:10)
3. Discipleship
We Value Spiritual Growth.
Because we are called to make disciples, our primary focus is ministering to people, not conducting meetings, administrating programs, or building buildings.
19. “Go therefore & make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father & of the Son & of the Holy Spirit, 20. teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19,20)
4. Leadership
We value leadership development.
Because we are called to raise up spiritual leaders, we prioritise leadership training & deliberately create opportunities for young potential leaders to develop their gifts.
. . . and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. (2 Timothy 2:2)
5. Family
We value long-term relationships.
Because the family is the foundation & validation for all ministry, we refuse to sacrifice our marriages & our children on the altars of temporal success, & because we believe God has called us to be a spiritual family, we reject the idea of disposable relationships & choose to walk in love, respect, & unity.
…Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labour in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. . . 3. Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. (Psalm 127:1,3
. . . eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. (Ephesians 4:3)
