Beach Christian Centre

Pollard Family

We (Ryan & Emma) are honoured to be the pastors of Beach Christian Centre. We enjoy family life with our three children Aria, Daniel & Zoe. I (Ryan) came to Christ in 1991, studied business & marketing & began full time ministry in 1997 as a Youth Pastor in Auckland. Emma is a trained school teacher with a degree in Japanese. Emma & I met & married in 2003. We moved to Snells Beach soon after & served as Worship Pastors at Lifeway Church for 5yrs where we produced a worship CD. We have been pastoring here since October 2009 & loving it.

We both have a passion for God's amazing Presence & for seeing people connect with Him, especially for the first time. I (Ryan) enjoy jamming on my guitar, soccer, worship & gooood coffee! Emma enjoys painting, worship, photography, coffee & the beach.

WELCOME

We are a contemporary family church with a passion for God’s Presence & a BIG heart for our community.
In keeping with our beach culture we are informal in style yet very intentional about connecting people with God.

We believe Jesus came to give us LIFE & life to the full. We love to experience this life whenever we meet together. Come & join us on a Sunday morning, we’d love to see you!
