How We Began

New Life Church had its beginning with a word from the Lord to Founding Pastor Keener Batchelor in 1993. He stepped out in obedience to start New Life Church with a heart to reach people with the Gospel and bring them into the family of God. As the Brownsville Revival began to touch the U.S. in 1995, New Life Church was greatly impacted by this move of God. The ministry of New Life Church was marked by the preaching of the Gospel and hunger for the presence of the Lord. 

In 2012, after nineteen years of faithful leadership, Pastor Keener stepped into a new season of ministry at New Life Church. Having served alongside his father for fifteen years as Associate Pastor, Jason Batchelor transitioned to the role of Senior Pastor. 


That's where we've been. But our story doesn't end there. In fact, it is just beginning.
