New Life Baptist Church, College Station Texas

Missions and Church Planting

New Life is actively involved in mis­sions and church plant­ing in our com­mu­nity, state, nation, and world.

Below you will find a list of orga­ni­za­tions and indi­vid­u­als with whom we part­ner, the rea­son for our affil­i­a­tion, and a lit­tle about how we sup­port them.

Acts 29 Network

Acts 29 is a trans-denominational peer-to-peer net­work of Chris­t­ian, evan­gel­i­cal, mis­sional, reformed pas­tors and churches. Our pas­tors ben­e­fit from coach­ing, men­tor­ing, and peer-to-peer friend­ships with other lead­ers. Addi­tion­ally, we have the priv­i­lege of work­ing along­side other like-minded churches to plant healthy churches in our com­mu­nity, state, nation, and world.

South­ern Bap­tist Con­ven­tion Coop­er­a­tive Program

Con­trary to pop­u­lar belief, the South­ern Bap­tist Con­ven­tion is not a denom­i­na­tion, but an asso­ci­a­tion of free con­fess­ing churches. New Life will­ingly and freely part­ners with the SBC Coop­er­a­tive Pro­gram, which pro­vides finan­cial, admin­is­tra­tive, and ongo­ing spir­i­tual sup­port to mis­sion­ar­ies in North Amer­ica and the world.

Creath Bra­zos Bap­tist Association

The Creath Bra­zos Bap­tist Asso­ci­a­tion (CBBA) is an asso­ci­a­tion of Bap­tist churches from Madi­son, Bra­zos, Grimes, Waller, and Leon coun­ties. We par­tic­i­pate in the CBBA by donat­ing to the Acts 1:8 fund, which helps smaller churches obtain fund­ing for short-term mis­sion trips.

Jim and Rachel Jobe

Jim and Rachel Jobe were a part of New Life’s core group and were among the first mem­bers of our church. In August 2009, they left for Michi­gan to train with New Tribes Mis­sions. After an intense period of train­ing, they will leave the coun­try to pro­claim the Gospel and plant churches among ani­mistic tribes in the south­ern hemi­sphere. To learn more about the Jobe’s and how you can prayer­fully sup­port them, visit their blog. If you would like more infor­ma­tion about how you can finan­cially sup­port them, please fol­low this link.

Brock and Megan Birkenfeld

Brock and Megan joined New Life in Sep­tem­ber 2009. In Fall 2011, they were  appointed by World Team to facil­i­tate a church plant­ing move­ment that will focus on an unreached peo­ple group in the 10/40 window.  In Spring 2012, their final des­ti­na­tion will be deter­mined and they will begin rais­ing finan­cial support.  Until their planned depar­ture in late 2013, they will be pur­su­ing fur­ther train­ing, serv­ing at New Life, and build­ing a team who will sup­port them by pray­ing for them, giv­ing finan­cially, or both. Please visit their blog for more infor­ma­tion.
