O U R S T O R Y
New Life Christian Church is founded on the good news that God has done everything necessary to bring us into a relationship with him. The good news tells us that believing in Jesus and his finished work on the cross is the basis of salvation and a right relationship with God.
New Life Christian Church was planted by migrants from the Netherlands in the early 1950s. It was first established as the Blacktown Reformed Church, and later became known as the Blacktown Christian Reformed Church. Today, in order to reflect the ongoing new life promised by the Lord Jesus Christ who is the head of the church, we are now called New Life Christian Church.
The people of New Life Christian Church are a family of ordinary people from all walks of life who believe that Jesus Christ is Saviour and Lord. We love to meet together and get to know new people!

O U R B E L I E F S
We believe that Scripture alone is the final authority by which we are to live (2 Timothy 3:14-17).
Christ alone is the one true Saviour of the world (Acts 4:10-12).
Salvation is a gift of grace alone and is not earned (Ephesians 2:8).
We are saved by faith alone and not by works (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Our salvation and all we do in response is for the glory of God alone (1 Corinthians 10:31).
We uphold the confessions of the Reformation, including the Heidelberg Catechism,
Belgic Confession, Canons of Dort and Westminster Confession.
