Adult Nurture & Discipleship - West Point Grey Baptist Church

The main framework of the Adult Nurture and Discipleship ministry at WPGBC is built on two out of the five foundational principles of the current Vision and Mission Statement. Gathering and Growing.

We experience and Share Jesus Christ by:

Gathering as the Fathers sons and daughters and

Growing to be like Jesus Christ as we grow together

Gathering includes Small Groups, Sunday Morning Main Gathering, and Retreats with the emphasis on Nurturing community.

Growing includes Bible study, Sunday School, Seminars, and Topical series with the emphasis on

Nurturing Growth.

It is our heart to intentionally nurture disciples from new believers right through to maturing believers. Exploring Christianity through to Fully Invested Christianity.

These are some of the resources that are regularly offered in the life of our church. For up-to-date offerings, please email Esther at or call the church office @ 604.228.9747.
