The church edifice is now a multi-level, multi-purpose building that accommodates an audience of 1,200. Each Sunday, Bayview Church holds two morning worship services. The Lord adds to the church daily. Baptisms are witnessed every Lord’s Day!
His Leadership
Further testaments of Pastor Winters’ ministry are two churches that were “planted” as a result of his visionary leadership. Mesa View Baptist and Mountain View Community are both now thriving independent congregations.
The 40,000 square foot Martin Luther King, Jr. Christian Center was completed in May 1995 to accommodate Bayview’s ever-expanding Christian Education ministry and to meet the needs of the community. It houses Nubia Leadership Academy, the first church-based Charter School in California. Nubia began September 1997 with an enrollment of 170 students in grades K-5. Currently, Nubia has an enrollment of over 400 in grades K-6.
