In the fall of 2003, Pastor Bob & Tracey Mazeroski visited a tiny Church by the name of Grace Community in Weirton, WV to hear a friend preach. As they walked into the building they were astonished to see only 6 to 8 members of the church. As Pastor Mazeroksi sat through the service, looking at the empty pews, the Lord began gripping his heart to ask the question, "Why can't these pews be filled?" From that moment on, God continued to burden him for the tiny church known as Grace Community. Pastor Mazeroski found out that the small church was about to close its doors for multiple reasons: bills couldn't be paid, attendance was dwindling, and there was no pastor. Shortly after the visit and filling in the pulpit on several occasions the Potomac district of the Assemblies of God asked Pastor Mazersoki to pastor the struggling church. To Pastor Bob & Tracey there were many obstacles that had to be overcome; Pastor Bob wasn't credentialed at the time, he was working for large estate, and they were living a comfortable and happy life in McMurray, PA. After a series of God events and confirmations, they knew that the Holy Spirit was orchestrating it all and that it was the will of God for them to pastor the church. Other churches in the Potomac district of the Assemblies of God rallied behind and committed monthly not only to pray for the church but to support the work monetarily. The Church began to grow and what started out as 6 members began to grow and is impacting hundreds today. With the increase of attendance New Life Worship Center (formerly known as Grace Community) had to relocate to a bigger building in fall of 2005. In April of 2007 New Life Worship Center launched a second location in the Pittsburgh Area. The Vision of New Life is to impact the entire Tri State region of West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania. New Life Worship Center is a true work of church revitalization and church planting only by the power and grace of Jesus Christ. New Life continues to see many salvations, miracles, and healings along with the provision of God. New Life continues to be a church experiencing His Presence, His Power, and His Person! |
