New Life Christian Fellowship began in seed form as a mission of Fairlawn Baptist Church of Akron, Ohio back in November of 1956. By 1958, the mission was constituted as a church under the name Medina Baptist Church. During the 60s and 70s the church grew and was held in various locations including Medina High School as well as a converted house at 707 N. Court St. By 1980 though, property was purchased at our present location (580 N. State Road) and the church had become known as Friendship Baptist Church. Then in 1991, the church was reconstituted as New Life Christian Fellowship and has been known as such to this day. Most recently from November of 2001 until July of 2007, Rev. Bob Scott served as pastor. Following his retirement, the current pastor, Rev. Brian Liechty was called in January of 2008.
