Nexus Church

Northside Christian College commenced in 1985 and remains a significant ministry of Nexus Church (formerly Northside Christian Church), which is co-located with us. Other ministries on our campus include Next Steps Kindy (2012) and Nexus Care (2007). Northside and each of these ministries are blessed to be under the spiritual oversight of Nexus Church and its Senior Pastors Murray and Jane Averill.

Nexus Church began as an outreach ministry in the Stafford area in 1952. The Church moved to its present location in 1976 with just 80 people. Over the last few decades, Nexus has grown into a large, thriving Christian community in the northern suburbs of Brisbane. ‘Nexus’ means ‘a point of connection’, and the desire of the church is to be a life-giving Church – helping connect people to God, community and purpose.

Nexus Church is part of the Australian Christian Churches. The Assemblies of God in Australia was formed in 1937 and has experienced consistent growth, particularly in the last twenty years. It adopted a new name of Australian Christian Churches in 2007 and currently consists of more than 1,100 churches.
