Our story
What began as a vision for a new kind of community has grown into a ministry of people from many different backgrounds.

It started on Zoom
New Life Fellowship began meeting in June of 2025. What started out as a vision to create a new type of community has now blossomed into a growing ministry that consists of people from many different backgrounds and faith traditions.
New Life Fellowship was founded by Pastor Noah Raines, and first met as a Zoom Bible study. We still hold the Bible study that started it all — alongside a monthly fellowship service and a standing invitation to coffee.
Mennonite, and open
Though we are a Mennonite ministry, we welcome people of all faith backgrounds — and those who are just curious, or who just want somewhere to belong.
We are a provisional member of Central District Conference of Mennonite Church USA, and we are grateful for the support of both our conference and our denomination.

Everyone means everyone
We welcome people regardless of race, gender, sexuality, religion, disability, or status.
