The New Life Baptist Church is motivated by the goal of 
						creating a systematic cycle of evangelism in the gospel 
						of Jesus Christ and discipleship in His way, through 
						evangelistic outreach to the community whereby significant 
						relationships in Christ can be fostered through effective 
						ministry resulting in genuine worship and holistic stewardship, 
						leading to personal discipleship and the equipping of families 
						through systematic teaching, resulting in missionary mindsets 
						toward kingdom advancement and growth into the lives of 
						individuals, families, communities and nations.>
						
						
							
								
							 
							
							In 1998, as a Member of Community Fellowship 
							Baptist Church, in Missouri City, Texas, Reverend 
							Yuri Solomon was moved of God to organize New Life 
							Baptist Church. New Life Baptist Church was 
							organized in the home of Sister Arletha Mackey, on 
							May 3, 1998. On that same morning we held our first 
							worship service. In attendance were Pastor Yuri 
							Solomon, Katrina Solomon, Arletha Mackey, and 
							LaTonya Mackey. By December 1998, we leased our 
							first worship facility at 8410 Brandon Lane; we 
							remained there for a year and a half. Finally, the 
							decision was made in June of 2000 to return to home 
							worship, in an effort to amass the funds necessary 
							to begin to purchase a facility of our own. We then 
							continued to worship in the home of Pastor and 
							Sister Solomon. By March of 2001 the Lord blessed 
							and enabled us to begin purchase of our present 
							facility here at 4714 Wilmington St. In 2014, God 
							has blessed us to enter into a new era in the life 
							of our church: We retired our first church note, 
							while simultaneously purchasing two lots adjacent to 
							our present property. In our tenure there have been 
							many challenges. However, as Pastor Solomon always 
							says, there are no problems for Christians, just 
							uncomfortable situations. Thus our difficulties have 
							forged many ministries at our Church such as, the 
							Men of God, the Women of Faith, the Soldiers for 
							Christ Youth, the Hospitality Team, the Program 
							Committee, the Usher Board, WordTalk Radio Ministry, 
							the Pastor Aide, Adult and Youth Choirs, and the 
							Life Bible Institute. The Vision of our church is 
							"Teaching People to Reach People" The mission of our 
							church is "We seek to reach, we reach to grow, we 
							grow to send and we send to seek". The motto of our 
							Church is "Proclaiming the Heavenly Hope", for we 
							know that there is no other means to accomplish our 
							vision and mission than the Gospel of Christ. The 
							preaching and teaching of New Life has been 
							essential to building spiritual individuals, strong 
							families, and a lifestyle of constant outreach to 
							others. Our history is short because this is just 
							the beginning. We have a great work ahead of us; 
							however, we have learned that with Christ all things 
							are possible.
						
						
							
							
							
							We believe in one 
						God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The triune God has 
						created man in His own image and has called him to 
						manifest and reflect holiness through obedience to His 
						commandments. Because man has woefully fallen in this 
						responsibility and entered into a state of moral 
						corruption, he has subsequently become estranged from 
						his Creator.
						
						Because of a profound love for His creation, God has 
						initiated a plan of redemption which He has accomplished 
						on behalf of His people in the realm of temporal 
						history. The zenith of this redemption is located in the 
						historical incarnation of God in the person of Jesus of 
						Nazareth. We confess Jesus to be the Christ of Old 
						Testament prophecy, being at the same time fully God and 
						fully man. Jesus, through His substitutionary atoning 
						death and bodily resurrection, has provided the 
						meritorious basis of our justification, which, by God's 
						grace, we receive by faith alone.
						
						Proceeding from the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit 
						dwells in the hearts of believers, effecting their 
						regeneration and operating in their sanctification. The 
						same Holy Spirit has been given to the people of God to 
						empower them for the service of bearing witness to the 
						kingdom of God. The Holy Spirit brings His people 
						together to form a corporate community of believers. We 
						believe that Christ has established a visible church 
						which is called to live in the power of the Holy Spirit 
						under the regulation of the authority of Holy Scripture, 
						exercising discipline, administering the sacraments, and 
						preaching the Gospel of Christ.
						We believe that the Bible, in its entirety, is divine 
						revelation, and we submit to the authority of Holy 
						Scripture, acknowledging it to be inerrantly inspired by 
						God and carrying the full weight of His authority.
						We support the work of Christian organizations and 
						institutions that confess the Lordship of Jesus Christ. 
						We are committed to the implementation of the social and 
						cultural implications of God's commandments for the 
						well-being of man and his environment. We believe our 
						faith should be visible in concrete forms and models of 
						personal and social behavior. We seek to be faithful 
						disciples of Christ, enduring in love and obedience 
						until He comes again to consummate His kingdom.
