Meet our Pastors
Youth Pastor – Xander Napoli
Xander and Nanette oversee youth discipleship at Church by the Bay, and have been serving here since mid 2015. Born and bred on the Bellarine, Xander has always held roots here, yet he spent the majority of his young adult life living and working around the state. In contrast, Nanette comes from the other side of the world, from the US to Romania, finally relocating with family in Melbourne. We met serving young people together at Red Frogs and have continued to serve young people ever since. Despite our original plans not including the Bellarine, God gave us a clear vision to serve Him here and we’ve never looked back. This is our home, our mission field and our family, and there will always be a place at our table for anyone on the Bellarine, young or old. |
