Our history

1990

Dave returns to Jeffreys Bay and makes the rounds to all local ministers, asking for their right hand in fellowship. All wholeheartedly welcome Dave. Dave spends the next two years visiting folks in Jeffreys Bay and establishing a Bible study.

1992

Wavecrest Christian Fellowship is formally started with 54 people and the first meeting takes place on 2 February, 1992, in the old movie house in Beach Centre. The first appointed elders are Dave Webster, Richard Freeman, Aubrey Pike and John Dougall Snr.
