Our Story
Starting 1888 as the first baptist church in Townsville, Northreach Baptist Church is one of the oldest churches in Townsville. Learn about our history and where God is leading us as a church!
What We Believe
Northreach Baptist Church consists of baptised believers in the Lord Jesus Christ who have been duly admitted into membership according to its rules. It welcomes non-members as participants in its life and ministry. Our Church is a constituent church of the Baptist Union of Queensland (Queensland Baptists).
Life Groups
Life Groups are small groups of people who meet together. These gatherings are centred around God's Word, and are designed to encourage intentional discipleship, as we seek to grow deeper in our relationship with God.
