Pastors & Elders:

New City is led by a plurality of pastors and elders. These men are called, biblically qualified (1 Tim., Titus 1, 1 Peter 5, Acts 20), and affirmed by our church. The pastors and elders oversee the spiritual life, health, and doctrine of the church; ensuring the gospel is being preached inside and outside New City, our community is being cared for, and encouraging the congregation towards hope in Jesus for all of life.

Our deacons work with the elders to serve the congregation in stewardship, justice, and practical ministry. These men oversee the benevolence needs of our church and community. They also promote justice, generosity, and stewardship in all of life.
