About Us

humble origins

Formerly a part of Calvary Assembly of God, New Life Assembly of God was founded in 1965 by Pastor (Ps.) and Mrs. Lee Seang Lip to better minister to the Chinese-speaking congregation.

Until 1968, the church held regular worship services, Sunday School classes, and other activities at a residential property along Mountbatten Road to minister to neighboring residents.

Subsequently, the government re-acquisitioned the land and the church had to move. Graciously, God brought New Life through the next few years of nomadic occupation. It was not until 1984 that the church found a home at Association Building in Geylang. The church also officially registered as a religious organization ("New Life Church Ltd") that year.

Diligent stewardship

After Ps. Lee suffered a stroke in 1990, the reins were handed over to Ps. Timothy Poon and Ps. Lim Geok Huat. Together with Mrs. Lee and a board of elders, they have continued the efforts of Ps. Lee in caring for the church and providing pastoral leadership.

Over the next twenty-odd years, they oversaw the expansion of the church's outreach efforts. In 2010, a shophouse unit in Macpherson was purchased to provide free tuition and regular educational activities to the young and old residents of the Circuit Road estate.

Similarly, members of NLC have also been participating in mission trips to India and Indonesia since 1996 to serve and share the love of God with the unreached and the destitute.

The Road Ahead

In 2020, God called New Life Church to its current premise at TSL 101. Despite being a small community, NLC continues to inject God's love into the lives of many.

In addition to the initiatives above, the church has embarked on new outreach activities to meet the needs of residents living in the Eunos area.
