Our History:

The story of New Life Center begins in the fall of 1972 when the Robinsons came to Buffalo New York to build and grow a church. They arrived with only five people: Rev. & Sis. Robinson, their daughter Angelene, and Bro. & Sis. Carrell (Sis. Robinson's parents).

After inviting members of the community to come, the first church service was held on December 17, 1972 at Columbia Hook and Ladder Fire Club, North Tonawanda. Soon they moved to "the little brown church" a former Methodist church on Adams Street. After outgrowing this church, the congregation moved to Buffalo and shared the Redeemer Lutheran Church, then moved to share the Lafayette Ave. Presbyterian Church.

Finally in 1977 the Robinsons purchased the Millstream School at 80 Luksin Drive, Tonawanda. The down payment was paid in full by peanut brittle sales. Soon after moving in Sister Robinson started the New Life Day Care.

In 1982 the congregation had outgrown the "gym" in which services had been held and ground was broken to build a new sanctuary & offices. Through much labor and fundraising by our saints the sanctuary was erected.

In 1991 construction of another addition went underway, this time to build the New Life Christian School. Today as a result of much hard work, stands an outstanding structure and a beautiful group of people!
