Pray for Our Church Planters
New Life is a church planting church, and every year there are new candidates who are called to plant a church. These candidates go through the Passion 4 Planting's program of guidance and preparation to go out and plant a church that brings the good news of the gospel.
As a church, we pray for the church planters every year and want to invite you to specifically pray for the individuals who are following God's calling over their lives. Below are the names of the church planters and the name of the church they are planting.
