Who Are We?
North Shore Bethel Missionary Baptist Church (NSBMBC) is an independent, Christ-established, Bible-believing church located in Hillcrest, Auckland. Our church was started in 2006 and has been led by our Under-shepherd, Pastor Louie Galang since it’s inception.
Come and join us at our church services and activities where you can experience first-hand our hospitality and warm fellowship, and most importantly, praise and worship God together!
Our Beliefs & Mission
At NSBMBC, we believe that the Bible (King James Version) is the true Word of God and it’s teachings should be manifested in the everyday lives of all believers of Christ. Living in a world where Biblical values and convictions are constantly challenged and mocked, it is our church’s priority to share the Word of God through our preachings and teachings, and to fulfil the Great Commission of Jesus Christ as He has set out in Matthew 28:19-20 through our soul-winning efforts.
“[19] Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
[20] Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
— Matthew 25:19-20 (KJV)Our Pastor
Hello, it is lovely to meet you! I am Pastor Louie Galang, the Lead Pastor of NSBMBC.
Originally from the Philippines, I immigrated with my wife, Sister Lily Galang, and our three daughters in 2002 to Auckland, New Zealand. Like other immigrants, my family and I moved to New Zealand with the initial intent of seeking greener pastures, however, I later recognised God’s calling for my life. What started with me leading small, home-based Bible studies, God eventually impressed upon my heart to lead His flock. Following God’s calling, I was ordained as a pastor in December 2005 under the authority of Landmark Baptist Church based in Ōtara, Auckland, and not long after in June 2006, their church sent me out to become the pastor of NSBMBC.
Being the Under-shepherd of NSBMBC comes with immense responsibility and this role has definitely not come without its hardships, but despite that, God has always provided me with the strength and wisdom I need to take care of His flock. As such, I am incredibly grateful for all the members that God has blessed our church with over the years who have assisted me in serving the Lord and in fulfilling His Great Commission.
