We were made for Jesus. Purposefully designed to live in His Presence. This is our deepest desire.
We’re a community that pursues healing and freedom in every area of our lives. So that nothing hinders us from encountering His heart. In His Presence, we’re transformed – not only our own lives but our families, communities, spheres of influence and ultimately the nations. Our heart is to encounter God, and live forever changed.
Our Mission.
A Foursquare Church.
Newlife is part of The Foursquare Church – a movement of over 67,500 Churches in over 150 nations around the world. Foursquare’s mission is to see the whole Church, take the whole gospel, to the whole world.
Beliefs
The Foursquare Church believes that Jesus Christ is the Savior, Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, Healer, and Soon-Coming King.
We stand firm on the foundation set by Hebrews 13:8 which proclaims “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
The Foursquare Declaration of Faith, which lays out our basic doctrine, was drafted by Foursquare founder Aimee Semple McPherson.

What do we believe?
The Foursquare Church promotes unity in essentials, liberty in non-essentials and charity in all things.
Baptism with the Holy Spirit
We believe that baptism with the Holy Spirit empowers believers, and that the Holy Spirit’s incoming follows the same pattern that is described in the New Testament (Acts 2:4).
Water Baptism & the Lord's Supper
We believe that baptism by immersion in water is an outward sign of an inward work (Matt. 28:19; Rom. 6:4). We believe in commemorating the Lord’s Supper by the symbolic use of bread and fruit of the vine (1 Cor. 11:24, 25).
Church Relationship
We believe that followers of Christ have a sacred duty to identify with the visible church of Jesus Christ and should meet regularly with fellow believers (Heb. 10:24, 25)
Civil Government
We believe that laws and ordinances come from God’s ultimate authority and should be upheld, except when they are in opposition to the revealed will of God (Rom. 13:1-5).
Daily Christian Life
We believe that it is the will of God for believers to walk in progressive sanctification, growing continuously in the faith (Heb. 6:1).
Divine Healing
We believe that divine healing is the power of Christ to heal the sick in answer to prayer offered in faith (Jas. 5:14-16).
Evangelism
We believe that the church’s primary responsibilities are taking the gospel to the entire world and making disciples (Mark 16:15; Matt. 28:19-20).
The Fall of Man
We believe that man is created in the image of God but, by voluntary disobedience, fell from perfection—thereby imbuing humanity with sinfulness (Rom. 5:12).
The Eternal Godhead
We believe that God is Triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (2 Cor. 13:14).
The Gifts & Fruit of the Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit has gifts to bestow upon Christians (1 Cor. 12:1-11) and that we should show spiritual fruit as evidence of a Spirit-filled life (Gal. 5:22-25).
Heaven
We believe that heaven is the glorious eternal home of born-again believers (John 14:1-3; Rev. 7:15-17).
The Holy Scriptures
We believe that the Bible is God-inspired (2 Tim. 3:16, 17).
Hell
We believe that hell is the place of eternal torment for all who reject Christ as Savior (Rev. 20:11-15).
The Final Judgement
We believe every person will one day stand before the judgment seat of Christ to receive eternal life or death (Rev. 20:11-15; Heb. 9:27; 2 Cor. 5:10).
Moderation
We believe that people who follow Christ should avoid the extremes of fanaticism and pursue lives of balance and moderation, demonstrating gentleness and patience (Phil. 4:5, KJV; Col. 3:12, 13).
The Second Coming of Christ
We believe that the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent (1 Thess. 4:16, 17; Titus 2:11-13).
Salvation Through Grace
We believe that we receive salvation when we come to God through faith in the atoning work of Jesus on the cross. Salvation is God’s gift to us (Eph. 2:8).
The Spirit Filled Life
We believe that it is the will of God that we daily walk in the power of the Holy Spirit (Eph. 4:30-32).
Tithes & Offerings
We believe the method ordained by God for the support and spread of His cause is giving tithes and offerings (Mal. 3:10; 2 Cor. 9:7).
