our vision

Every Church is heading somewhere - we believe God has given us a very specific direction....

Flowing out of our mission: 'New Life is a Church on a mission to reach those who don't know Christ in the North London area and beyond' - we have a vision to bring the good news of Jesus, to the people who live and work in Camden, Islington and Haringey, with the power of God and see many won for Christ.

We are passionate about seeing God's kingdom come, on earth as it is in heaven - touching and changing lives, across this City. This passion is driving us to call out to God for His power and equipping to be effective in that which God has called us to do.

Our vision is simple - to pray, and reach out! To ask God to pour out His Holy Spirit on this part of London, and to listen to God and follow His leading seeking to impact this City for Jesus.

Equally important in being effective in this, we work hard to create a Church family that is loving and supportive and demonstrates Jesus command that we 'love each other'.

who we are

New Life began in 1978 as a prayer meeting of a few international students in Regent's Park, North London. It grew and became a Church, which met in a nearby house. At first it was called Regent's Park Christian Fellowship and was birthed out of the remarkable things God was doing in South Chard, Somerset. The early meetings were 'in the round' no band or preacher, but each member bringing a Psalm, a Hymn a prophecy, a teaching.

As the Church grew, it moved to a rented hall in Kentish Town, near the Tube Station for a few years, before moving to a Community Centre in Tufnell Park, North London and changing it's name to New Life Christian Fellowship.

For a season of around ten years we became a Children's Church - focussed on reaching the unchurched children in Kentish Town. During that time we started to reach the parents of the unchurched children and became a family Church - serving all ages. It changed it's name again in 2003 to New Life Church (North London) - everyone just calls us New Life!

We have worked hard in growing a community of Christians who are learning together how to love God, love each other and love those who don't know Jesus.

We meet on Sundays in Acland Burghley School Hall, just opposite Tufnell Park Tube Station.

Leadership

"The most important person is the one who comes for the first time" - our philisophy of leadership is all about service and example, not position and titles: In fact we don't go for titles much at New Life - but instead we believe every person is important. We value all ages and listen to what God is saying through each person, whatever their age or Christian experience.

We have an eldership structure of leadership - who work with the Trustees and a broader New Life Leaders Forum, to hear what God is saying to the whole Church and to oversee and direct the life of the fellowship.If you have any questions and would like to talk to one of the leaders - please email office@newlife-london.org.uk
