About Us

Our Story

Founded in a backyard, built by presence — not performance.

How we began

A few hungry hearts, a backyard, and a big God.

New Life Church was founded during the pandemic in a backyard with a few hungry hearts. What started as a small group hungry for more of God’s presence has grown into a family of everyday people learning to walk with Jesus.

We’re not interested in a show. We’re after something deeper — the kind of faith that’s built in the quiet, that shows up in real life, and that spreads because it’s real. “We’re not here to perform. We’re here to abide.”

Today, that same backyard-sized hunger has grown into a presence-driven church in the heart of Yorba Linda — still small enough to know your name, still hungry enough to keep growing.

We slow down to dwell — making room for real connection with God and with each other.
