Meet A New Beginning Church: A New Beginning Church’s first service was on July 4, 2010, as the result of the vision and perseverance of 22 people. Today, we are the largest church in Long County, Georgia with an average attendance of 700 (pre-covid) souls each week. The primary focus of our church is to be that beacon of light to those that are hurting and in need in our local communities. One of the greatest compliments we receive on a regular basis is how welcoming our church is to our guests, regardless of the color of your skin or what you are wearing.

Children’s ministry was a priority for Jesus and we have made children’s ministry and teen ministry at A New Beginning Church a top priority as well. These are ministries during a child’s most critical and formative years. We believe that we must invest our time and resources where we will see the biggest harvest, and we have found that within our children and teen ministries.
