OUR HERITAGE
The God of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the Light of the Gospel of the Glory of Christ, who is the image of God, for we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake, for God who said, “Let Light shine out of darkness,” made His Light shine in our hearts to give us the Light of the knowledge of the Glory of God in the face of Christ. 2 Corinthians 4: 4-6
We would like to welcome you to New Life Baptist Church. We hope that you will feel comfortable in your Father’s house. Our goal is to serve our Savior by serving you and proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus. New Life Baptist Church was founded on November 7, 1999, under the leadership of God, and placed under the care of Rev. Adam Jaquez. God began His purpose using this body of believers many years ago, and is continually changing us and helping us to grow. What you see now as New Life Baptist Church began as a merge of two churches known as Immanuel Baptist Church, and Faith Baptist Church. Immanuel Baptist Church was founded on January 1999 and was originally a mission of First Baptist Church of Yoakum. We saw God move mightily in this church, however the building was in desperate need of repair which caused us to seek to either rebuild or relocate which opened the way for us to merge with Faith Baptist Church. Faith Baptist was founded on December 5, 1963. God continued to give His people a great sense of purpose and hope. However, being few in number, and without a full time pastor, considered the merge with great excitement and anticipation. It was at this time that God showed His awesome power and purpose by uniting the two bodies as one. Today we stand together proclaiming His Truth to the community, cities, nation and the world that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). Our prayer is that you too will join in the work and the accomplishment of this great mission. So, we gladly invite you not only to serve with us, but also to be part of us!! May God Bless You!
