Beachside Christian Fellowship
Port Stephens
Love God – Love our Community – Love the Nations
HELLO and Welcome
Beachside is a warm, friendly family of everyday Christians who believe that Jesus is “the way, the truth and the life”, just as he said of himself. We aim to love and follow him in all things, to become more like him together, and to share his goodness with our community and wider world.
In short, we aim to:
LOVE GOD
LOVE OUR COMMUNITY
LOVE THE NATIONS
We believe that church is a place for all stripes and ages, and we welcome you to join us in worship. We are none of us perfect, but all invited, loved and forgiven. We are called by Jesus to step into new life — not as a one-time offer, but as a daily invitation to a deeper and fuller life of love and wholeness. We’d love to meet you and worship together! You can learn more at our About Us page, or explore our weekly services and ministries below.
