About Bella Vista
Walking in step with the Holy Spirit
Welcome to Bella Vista Church — a warm and Spirit-led community of believers nestled in the beautiful hills of Vernon, British Columbia. We’re a local congregation of the Church of God of Prophecy, committed to walking faithfully with Jesus and living out the power and presence of the Holy Spirit in our daily lives.
Our Story
Bella Vista Church has been a part of the Vernon community for decades, built on a foundation of prayer, worship, and a deep love for God's Word. From its earliest days, the church has been a place of gathering, healing, and hope — a lighthouse on the hill for anyone searching for truth and purpose.
In June 2025, we begin a new chapter as we welcome new pastoral leadership, continuing the legacy of faithful shepherding that has shaped our church family over the years. Though seasons change, our heart remains the same: to glorify God and serve people with compassion and authenticity.
Our Mission
At Bella Vista, we’re on a journey — one led by the Holy Spirit. Our mission is simple and profound:
“Walking in step with the Holy Spirit.”
We believe the Spirit of God empowers us to love well, serve boldly, and grow deeply in Christ. Everything we do — from worship to outreach — flows from a desire to be led by Him.
What We Value
• Faith — Rooted in the Bible and built on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
• Family — Whether you come alone or with generations, you're part of the family here.
• Spiritual Growth — Through worship, teaching, and community, we grow together in Christ.
• Community Outreach — We exist not just for ourselves, but for the world around us.
• Biblical Teaching — Every message points back to Scripture and God’s truth for our lives.
