About us
Yanchep Community Church (YCC) began in 2018 when Quinns Baptist Church backed a couple of pastors who live in Yanchep to start a local church in the town. Since then we have steadily grown and found various ways to serve in the area.
Who we are
We make it our aim to be a to be an authentic group of Jesus' followers. Known for loving one another, our area & the people in it. This means we meet often & are constantly looking for ways to care for one another & the people in our locality.
We Value
You can describe our community with three words - simple, delightful & powerful. We strive to keep our meetings down to earth and easy to participate in. We know how to laugh at ourselves and we never take ourselves too seriously. Even though this is the case, we don't take our faith in God lightly. We know that God is powerful and we work together continually to see His power shown in our lives and the local community.
We Believe
We believe that some things are really important. These are the central matters of faith in Jesus and the Bible. For a list of what we hold important see this statement of faith which we share with Baptist Churches in West Australia. When it comes to other less central matters we believe that each believer is called to follow Jesus according to the conscience God has gifted them with. This means that we are open to a wide set of interpretations of secondary issues. These are things like the type of Bible you might use, who can serve in church and what you think about how God created the world or intends to end it. In a nutshell, if there is a variety of ideas about a subject in the Bible, we want to hear them, but when something is settled, we will hold it fast.
