There has been a long historical connection between the two churches that dates back more than 70 years. Ps Colin Christian writes: Sunday 21 February 2016 was a significant milestone for the Boonah and Beaudesert Baptist Churches as they came together to form a partnership.

Colin & Rebecca Christian and family

The Boonah congregation received Colin Christian and his wife Rebecca and children into the pastorate of the Boonah church. The occasion was marked by a formal signing of a memorandum of understanding between the two churches, along with an induction service with Rev Stephen Ball from Qld Baptists and Pastor Josh Cocks from the Beaudesert Baptist Church. There has been a long historical connection between the two churches that dates back more than 70 years, when the Rev. E V Keith of the Boonah church travelled to restart the work of the Beaudesert Baptist Church after it closed at the beginning of the first world war. This historical partnership is now being revived.
