The Berean Bible Church began on this site about September 2018, as a Reformed Baptist Congregation.
"2018 marks the centenary of the construction of the chapel. Under the building oversight of Mr C Wilson, the members and friends of the Brassall Presbyterian Church constructed this 'house of worship' in early 1918. The pastor at that time was Rev G Cameron Wood and the congregation was regarded as a 'branch' of St Andrew's Presbyterian Church, located on the corner of Delacy and Downs Street, North Ipswich (now owned by Compassion Connection Pentecostal Church)"...
"On 26th October, 1981 the Bible Methodist Church purchased the property and continued to maintan a faithful gospel witness on this site until 21st September, 2018 when the Berean Bible Church of Queensland took over the stewardship of the property." (Extract from: History of North Ipswich Chapel by Pastor Troy D Cane - https://bbcq.org/history/ ).
The Brassall Presbyterian Church closed in the 1970s, and the property was later sold by the Uniting Church.
