New Life FellowshipPhoenix, Arizona
What happens, and when.
The life of this church runs on a simple weekly pattern. Everything else grows out of it.
Sunday worship
The whole church in one room — about 150 people, families together. Worship and preaching in Kinyarwanda, translated into English, led by Pastor Tharcisse Shaka.
Plan your visitChildren & youth teaching
The children of our families are taught every week by church volunteers — all of whom completed a background check before serving.
Small groups & discipleship
Small group Bible study is being established in homes, and when someone comes to faith, the pastor and leaders visit them personally — in their own language.
Altar of Prayer.
In June 2026 we gathered for three days of prayer and worship at 5827 N 35th Avenue, hosted by Pastor Shaka Tharcis, with guest speakers and worship teams from Phoenix and Austin, Texas.
