Elders
Lead Elder
Nick Van Rensburg with family Shelley, Brendan and Hayley
Nick and Shelley van Rensburg served on the Eldership team at NCFChurch, Pietermaritzburg for 5 years. During this time, God began to stir them and grow in them a vision to plant a NewTestamentChurch. After waiting on God, along with the New Covenant Ministries Apostolic team, they felt The LORD lead them to Port Elizabeth. This leading was confirmed by a prophetic word that spoke about a ‘City of Trade Routes’. (A new port at Coega was under construction at this time.) On Sunday 2nd February 2004 the first Celebration Meeting was held under the name of WESTSIDE CHURCH. This name has since been changed to Bay City Church.
Elder
Grant Coley with family Chantal, Mignonne, James & Zoe
Grant and Chantal have been married since 2003 and were called to Port Elizabeth in 2004. They relocated from Pietermaritzburg as part of a "two year" stay to serve in the church with Nick and Shelley. Well, it's been a little more than two years now and Grant is part of the eldership. Grant has a passion for reading the Word of God and seeking to know God, supported by Chantal as they lead in church and family life. Bay City Church are truly blessed to have the Coleys part of the leadership team.
