New Life Ministries is a community church in the heart of the old West End of Winnipeg,
Manitoba, Canada.

Started in 1983, in a home on Ellice Avenue, the church has grown and moved to its present
location at 514 Maryland Street (between Ellice and Sargent Avenues). The church is a
member of the Manitoba Baptist Association and has been supported by that Association
since 1983.

From the beginning, we have been focused on having a diverse and practical range of
ministries in our community. We emphasized the importance of our members being involved
in the community. As a result, even for the small group that we are, our members and
attenders are involved in over 50 different groups and agencies serving Winnipeg and other
areas.

Each person is encouraged to be involved with people and groups based on their personal
interests and giftings. About 80% of our attenders live in the community immediately around
the church, and about 65% of our attenders live below the "poverty line."

Our own life, our church - and our neighbourhood - poses some challenges. We all have
struggles. But none excuse us from being involved with others in a way that allows us to
experience and express God's love and power to change people and circumstances.

Part of our love for our community involves serving the neighbourhood - and the city - regardless
of whether people have any interest in church. Friendship and service are offered without any
condition or pressure to come to church..

We have started a number of community ministries, ranging from men's & women's groups,
to a small employment cooperative, a housing renovation ministry, a property management
ministry, and a community development group.

We continually try to adjust our ministries to match the needs and abilities of our members.
Where we can't undertake a ministry ourselves, we try to seek out partners with whom we
can meet our objectives.

We are excited about the ways God is working in and through our lives. We invite you to
explore this site.

If you're interested in our church, stop by and worship with us on Sunday mornings at 11:00
AM.

If you're interested in our community work, stop by sometime during the week or call
775-4929.
