About Us

Becoming New Creations in Christ

NewLifeTC is a spirit filled, Christ centered church. We are a Baptist Church, maintaining the theological and doctrinal principles generally consistent with Baptist beliefs. The Word of God is our primary guide and authority for directing the life of our church and its ministries. Jesus the Christ is Lord at NewLifeTC, and the true and only Head of our church. Our mission is to worship God in Spirit and in truth; to proclaim the gospel of Jesus the Christ; to serve in the world in the name of the Lord; to carry the message of new life in Jesus into the world.

What to Expect

What are services like?
Our services are charcaterized by praise and worship, prayer, a time to greet and fellowship, and preaching.

What is the community like?
Our community is urban, with surrounding suburban like areas. We are a Shore community, typical in size, population, etc. for the Jersey Shore region. Our focus with respect to community is broader than our immediate location.

What if I'm not a Christian?
If you are not a Christian, we encourage you to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord today. We encourage you as well to seek out a community of believers with whom to be connected. Consider NewLifeTC as such a community of believers for you. We will accept you with our arms wide open, and walk with you as we together walk with the Lord.
