Welcome to the New Life Christian Church website. You may be wondering…who are we?

NLCC is a part of the “Mystical Church.” We share a heritage with millions of believers across all ages, many of whom are now with the Lord while others are alive upon this earth.

NLCC is also a part of the “Universal Church.” We readily admit and rejoice in the fact that there are followers of Jesus all across the world today. We desire God’s Word to spread rapidly not only in Emporia, but throughout the entire world.

Most tangible for us, and you, NLCC is also a “Local Church.” We are a group of people who meet regularly at a building about two miles east of Emporia. Our purpose is to worship God with our brothers and sisters in Christ as He transforms our lives for His glory.

These three answers to “Who are we?” help us see what we believe is rooted in history (Mystical Church); it is not a passing fad. They remind us of our need to pray for followers of Jesus around the world to remain faithful to Him (Universal Church). They help us realize we exist not for our benefit, but for the benefit of others. People need to not only hear the good news of God’s saving love but also see and experience it from followers of Jesus. Therefore, what we do on Sunday mornings is only a small (though very important) part of what we do as followers of Jesus…
