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.
Brazos Valley Church Planters Network
The Brazos Valley Church Planters Network (BVCPN) was launched in July 2009 by our preaching pastor, Allen Duty, and Justin Hyde, lead pastor of Christ Church Brenham. The vision of the BVCPN is to connect,
resource, and encourage church planters in central Texas through
friendship, regular meetings, and events.
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. If
you would like more information about Jim and Rachel or would like to
add your own tax-deductible donation to our church’s monthly support,
please contact Cody Groves at cody@newlifecs.net.
Ryan and Amy
Ryan and Amy have been connected with our founding church, Living Hope, for a number of years. Ryan and Amy minister among Muslims in southeast Asia. If you would like more information about Ryan and Amy or would like to add your own tax-deductible donation to our church’s monthly support, please contact Cody Groves at cody@newlifecs.net.
