History of New Life in Christ Church

The history of New Life in Christ Church is a remarkable story of the loving leading of the Lord and the foresight and commitment of the faithful. It is marked by dependence on and surprises by God. While hope in the Lord’s plan for our church has stirred us to action, some dreams have not come about, and others were postponed. Still, throughout the past nearly 50 years the Lord has led us to fulfill what He wants for us. 

Church History

In the early 1970s several couples met for Bible study and became bonded by their desire to serve God in the Fredericksburg area. In 1972 the Fulks moved their young family to Fredericksburg to continue farming. They found a church home in one of the few non-denominational ministries in the area. Christian Women’s Club recently started in the area and asked the M.R. and Judy to begin a couples Bible study.. Excitement for studying God’s Word deepened.  

With a growing nucleus of committed believers came the question: What do we do after we come to faith in Jesus Christ? There was a desire to establish a church that would provide more in-depth study of God’s Word.
