Linwood Baptist Community Church, situated on the East side of Christchurch, is a warm and humble Christian fellowship committed to serving the diverse community in this vibrant area.


At LBCC, our mission is to engage and support our church family as they embark on a transformative journey of faith in Jesus Christ. We strive to create a loving and friendly environment that nurtures worship of God while actively helping those in need within and around our community.


Our vision extends beyond our immediate surroundings; we aspire to impact and rejuvenate Linwood and its neighboring areas with the life-changing message of redemption through Jesus Christ and His Kingdom. Through prayer, ministry, and outreach, we aim to be a church guided by the power of the Holy Spirit and the example of Jesus, ensuring that our beliefs and actions mirror His love and teachings.


We place great importance on biblical teaching to foster solid discipleship, promoting spiritual growth and healing within our fellowship. We encourage our church family to recognise and utilise the gifts that God has given them.


We wholeheartedly invite you to come as you are—no matter your background or beliefs. Our doors are open, and we would be delighted to get to know you better as we journey together in faith and fellowship.
