In 1995, the young, 250-member New Life Church first partnered with The McKnight Group to master plan its property and expand its facilities to reach the people of Gahanna.
A design was created to touch the community through new outreach events. Once inside the new space, it wasn’t long before the church held its first “Dessert Musical,” a community out reach event created to introduce New Life.

New Life’s multi-ministry worship center features 1,000 seats, a sanctuary-style platform, an open baptistery behind the platform, and a high school-size basketball court. Audio-visual features include twin rear-projection video screens and an audio/video/lighting mezzanine.
The inviting lobby includes a large hospitality counter, bookstore, and café with three-sided fireplace. Other areas are designated for music, classrooms, and a full-service kitchen. The two-story building is home to the youth worship center and arcade, as well as offices and a conference room.

New Life has grown to more than 1,500 and master plans are in place to construct new facilities on another piece of land. New Life’s new goal is to become multi-congregational.
