The theme of the ministry house is:
Replenishing lives through the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
We are not a church, but a gathering place for Worship, Prayer, Counseling, Pantry, Life Skills, and we are just beginning the Organic Garden, including flowers, vegetables, fruit trees, and Thompson Seedless Grapes - all to share with those in need. As we progress, we will be offering gardening classes too.

We continue to trust Jesus to provide "skilled workers" for the Harvest. We pray God will lead medical professionals to volunteer a few hours a month. We are hoping the VFW will send out a rep to help as well.

For decades, we've followed Jesus into the environment of the "ones" He led us to serve. It is such a joy to welcome them to the ministry house.

No one receives a salary. We are all volunteers. Counseling is available by appointment. Walk-ins are also served as needed. Guitar lessons are offered for those called to worship.

In faith that works through love, we trust in Jesus to provide all needs: spiritual, emotional, mental, physical, practical, and financial. We do not charge for our services as the people we've been called to serve generally have very little. Some are homeless.

Listening is a way of life. Listening to God, for His words of wisdom and knowledge; and listening to our guests. We do not enable, but rather share with our guests through prayer, counsel, and life skills. God has freely given to us through the Gospel of Jesus Christ, therefore we freely give.

By the grace of God, on 5/20/2019, we purchased a 1320 sq. ft. building on the highway. We did 9 months of renovations on the building before opening 3/8/2020. Winter 2023, we completed the infrastructure for the landscaping. Summer 2024, we started the organic garden. It truly is His dream ... we are blessed to be a part of it.

Local stores, Sierra Hills Markets, and Dollar General donate food. The Girl Scout Camp at Sugar Pine has donated food 3 years in a row which we are blessed to share with other food pantries in our region. The leadership class at the local middle school organizes a "can drive" each Thanksgiving, donating it all to our pantry. Once the gardening is established, they will be included in the gardening classes. The court sends us "community service workers" with assigned hours (20 - 300). They also receive prayer, and counsel while they serve with us. As our guests begin to grow in life skills, we encourage them to transition to the local churches.

This year we have been led to serve a free dinner the last Tuesday of each month for those in need. Lovely people from the community are volunteering alongside us to set up, cook, clean, and encourage. Such a joy to share God's love.

The fuel for The Ministry House, which was originally a "service station" aka a "filling station" is prayer and worship. For decades, the NLWM prayer team has been standing in the gap for such a time as this.

The time is now! Jesus loves to come at the darkest hour, even when all hope is gone, He will heal what is broken and resurrect what has died! All to the glory of God our Father, in Jesus name, Amen!

John 12:32-33 Jesus said, “The voice didn’t come for me but for you. At this moment the world is in crisis. Now Satan, the ruler of this world, will be thrown out. And I, as I am lifted up from the earth, will attract everyone to me and gather them around me.” MSG

Exponentially Blessed

Welcome to New Life Worship Ministries!

Welcome to the glories, the wonders and the overflowing blessings of the Cross of Jesus Christ. It is an awesome mystery unfolding before us in ever increasing measure. New Life Worship Ministries has powerful streams of healing and deliverance through Jesus Christ, God who has come in the flesh, to save souls, and to deliver nations!

Malachi 4:2 ... “But for you who fear My name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in His wings. And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let out to pasture. NLT

New Life Worship Ministries ... bringing individuals out of darkness and oppression, into the light and freedom of Christ, through worship, love, prayer, counsel, teaching, fellowship, encouragement, and outreach. Through the Word of God and the power of the Holy Spirit, Jesus is breaking chains that bind, contending through intercession for loved ones, regions; and reaching out to the "one."

With every eye fixed and focused on Jesus, truly He is the "Anchor that holds."

Ephesians 1:2-12 ... "We greet you with the grace and peace poured into our lives by God our Father and our Master, Jesus Christ. How blessed is God! And what a blessing He is! He's the Father of our Master, Jesus Christ, and takes us to the high places of blessing in Him. Long before He laid down earth's foundations, He had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of His love, to be made whole and holy by His love. Long, long ago He decided to adopt us into His family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure He took in planning this!) He wanted us to enter into the celebration of His lavish gift-giving by the hand of His beloved Son. Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, His blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we're a free people—free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all our misdeeds. And not just barely free, either. Abundantly free! He thought of everything, provided for everything we could possibly need, letting us in on the plans He took such delight in making. He set it all out before us in Christ, a long-range plan in which everything would be brought together and summed up in Him, everything in deepest heaven, everything on planet earth. It's in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, He had His eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose He is working out in everything and everyone." The Message MSG

Yes, I am so excited to tell you that this mystery of the Cross is true, powerful, exciting and eternal. All we will ever need is found in the Cross! Whether you know Jesus or not, TODAY is the day of provision for you. By accepting Him and His sacrifice for our sins, we make the greatest exchange, turning from our own way and walking in His will and His good pleasure. Oh the love, the joy, the luxuries of His Cross. Come now. Receive Him and all He has for you.

Since before the foundation of the world, He's prepared a hope chest full of precious treasure for you. It's all in His Word - the gold, silver and precious jewels of His Word yet to be discovered. He waits in expectancy for you to discover all He has hidden there just for you. Come, let's go on a treasure hunt together ... gratefully rejoicing in Him!

Grace upon grace,

Betty Jordan

Founded March 8, 1998, we are grateful servants of the Living God, Jesus Christ, who came in the flesh, to live, die, and rise again for the salvation of our souls. It is our joy and destiny to lift up His name! We love to watch Him change hearts, set the captives free, heal and make whole those who are broken. He is coming again!
