What started as a small group seeking the Lord's will has since blossomed into a desert oasis. God has placed us in the Pomerene area to be a light to those around us. We seek to serve others and reflect the love of Jesus in all that we say and do. We're excited to have you join us!
Our History
Early in 2011, God placed a desire in the hearts of several families to start a church in the Benson area. These families gathered around a simple kitchen table to seek God's will through prayer. It was from these times of prayer that God began to give the vision and mission that would one day become New Life Family Worship Center.
On June 12, 2011, these families stepped out in faith and launched New Life. Our first meetings were in Cochise Terrace RV Park's community building. We quickly outgrew the space and moved into their larger facility affectionately nicknamed "The Barn". God continued to bless and soon even the Barn could not hold us.
From here began the search for a more permanent location to call our own. Even in this process, God was clearly at work. He led us to the small community of Pomerene, to an unused building owned by the local school. Come to find out that what appeared to be a broken and run-down building actually had a solid foundation! After speaking with the school, renovations began; the school was even kind enough to allow us to meet in their cafeteria while we worked on the building. With a fresh coat of paint and some intense cleaning by our faithful members, we opened our doors on February 26, 2012.
Since then God has grown and shaped us into the church we are today. As God continues to bless us it is our prayer that we never lose sight of the true goal: to bring glory and honor to God by sharing the message of Jesus Christ.
