A merger forged a new path. That’s the story of New Life Presbyterian Church. This vibrant community in Roseville Minnesota stands as a testament to unity and faith. New Life Presbyterian Church isn’t just a building. It’s a living testament. A fusion of two distinct congregations. Knox Presbyterian Church established in 1890 and North Como Presbyterian Church founded in 1951. These two churches joined forces in 2014. They created a powerful new entity. The New Life Presbyterian Church officially began in late 2013. The Presbytery of the Twin Cities recognized the merger in January 2014.
New Life Presbyterian Church is more than just a merger. It’s a commitment to inclusion. This church is a member of the Covenant Network of Presbyterians. They actively strive for a fully inclusive church. They welcome all people. Their belief is based on love. A love for God for creation and for all people. They embrace exploring faith broadening minds and deepening hearts.
This isn’t just talk. New Life Presbyterian Church actively demonstrates its values. It was the first congregation in Minnesota to become a certified Presbyterian Earth Care Congregation. That happened in 2010. They champion environmental stewardship. They actively practice what they preach. Their commitment to environmental consciousness sets an example for other congregations.
More than just environmental stewardship. New Life Presbyterian Church participates in community outreach. They host a Keystone Food Mobile in their parking lot. This happens on the third Thursday of every month. They provide crucial food support to those in need. The church’s commitment to justice and mercy is evident. It is a vital part of the Roseville community.
