ABOUT US
New Life Baptist Church is a Southern Baptist congregation located at the 47/69 highway junction, just five miles north of Pittsburg, KS. We are a church committed to worshiping Jesus Christ, equipping believers for His service, and sharing the Gospel with our community and beyond.
In a world filled with distractions, we believe it is more important than ever to stay rooted in God’s Word and to gather together regularly in fellowship and worship. Our mission is to stand firm in faith, encourage one another, and remain focused on serving Jesus Christ in these trying times.
If you are looking for a church home, we invite you to come worship with us. Whether you’re new to the area, searching for a deeper connection with Christ, or simply wanting a place to grow in faith, you are welcome here.
In addition to our in-person services, we partner with First Baptist Church of Cherokee in a shared radio program, Revolution Radio. Our Sunday sermons are aired on 103.5 FM at 10:00 AM for three months, followed by three months of messages from First Baptist Church of Cherokee.
We would love to connect with you and answer any questions you may have. Join us as we worship, grow, and serve together in Christ!
