The Scriptures tell us that the Church is a body; each of us is a part of it, sharing our gifts to help one another grow in faith, maturity, and joy.
New Life is a family. We like each other. We are friends and disciples. We aren’t perfect and we don’t expect you to be either. We aspire to create a welcoming environment wherein people are encouraged to explore and activate their gifts, to be uplifted in community, and to live the amazing life God wants for them.
New Life was started in February 2011. That’s the easy part. Five congregations with at least 8 different names and untold locations merging over a 50 year period led to the church we are today. This process culminated in 2010 when the Brighton-McClure church reached out to Northminster church to consider a merger. After over a year of meeting and praying together, the unification was completed when the name “New Life Community Church” was chosen by the joint congregation.
For the fist time in 60 years, our membership is growing and healthy, and there is a genuine hope and excitement about what God is doing. It’s a great time to join us! We hope that New Life is a place you can grow in and call home.
New Life is a member of the Pittsburgh Presbytery and is affiliated with PCUSA.
New Life’s ministries run on the time, talents, and funds that our members and neighbors invest. If you want to be a part of what we do, please consider donating or volunteering.
At New Life Community Church, we are faithful to the Scriptures and obedient to the great commission of Jesus Christ. We believe that:
Our goal is to continue the work of Christ, spreading the good news of the Gospel so that all people can know God's love.
God meets us each where we are and calls us into New Life. These principles guide us as we work to make the most of that call.
We are all in this together! We want everyone to be involved, and to find out how they might fit in so that we can all participate together.

Keeping us inspired every Sunday morning, the Worship Team is made up of people who love to play music and sing to glorify God. We've had piano players, drummers, guitarists, harpists, organists, vocalists, and everything in between. Talk to Amy if you want to join!
They've never met a cord they couldn't untangle or a disconnected stream they couldn't re-connect... okay, maybe once or twice. They do audio mixing, presentations, video streaming, and so much more. If you like technology and solving problems on the fly, talk to Tom.
A lot goes on behind the scenes at New Life! The building needs maintaining, the garden needs tending, the storage needs organizing... and Bob needs to be supervised (trust us). These folks make sure all of that happens with minimal headaches. Talk to Sandy to lend a hand.
