New Life Assembly, Antwerp

How We Began

The New Life Assembly Parish of the Redeemed Christian Church of God started in 1992 at an old laundry house in Thalia straat Berchem. From its humble beginning, it has grown to be one of the biggest churches in Belgium.

The Journey So Far

If not for God, where would we have been today? We have been through the waters, the fire and the rage of the enemy yet we are still standing and waxing stronger. Our survival have even surprised us but whenever we remember the promises of God in His Word, the invisible hand of God that has stood for us, we have no option but to shout a big “glory be to God for his mercy endures forever”. It is only by the grace of God that we are what we are today. If not for God, we could have been consumed long ago. We were sent to Belgium from London in 2002 when the leaders of our church identified the grace of God in our lives. 

We came with great zeal and fire of the Holy Spirit. We immediately went into action. We started at Thaliastraat in Berchem. We soon moved to Belgielei and then to our present location. From the perspective of man we were very fantastic but we knew that it was only by the grace of God because it was our first church and we had no practical experience in church management. All that we had was the fire power of heaven with heaven as our focus. We were not ready to compromise the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. That brought us into confrontation with the powers that be in the land but the Lord delivered us from them all and gave us victory.
