Prayer
We know we can do many things besides pray, but we can do nothing until we pray. Prayer is the very cornerstone of the foundation of New Life Church and will always be at the center of all we do. Any growth or success is credited to the seeds of prayer sown in the very early days of our formation. We believe that prayer heals, restores, sets free, and moves the heart of God. Our ultimate desire is to be known as “A house of prayer for all nations” (Mark 11:17) and disciple a generation of people who know how to pray!
How to Get Involved with Prayer
Pre-service Prayer
Thirty minutes before every weekend service, we gather for pre-service prayer—a dedicated time to quiet our hearts, seek God’s presence, and prepare the atmosphere for all He wants to do. It’s a powerful moment of unity, where we cover every part of the service in prayer and invite the Holy Spirit to move freely. Join us!

Month of Prayer & Missions
Every January, we set the tone for the year by consecrating it as our Month of Prayer & Missions. It’s a sacred time when our church family comes together with focused hearts, seeking God’s direction and interceding for the nations. With a special theme each year and powerful prayer gatherings throughout the month, we lean in with expectation, believing for personal renewal and global impact.
