Pakistani New Life Church (PNLC) stands as pioneer and largest Desi (Urdu/Hindi/Punjabi-speaking) Church in Philadelphia with a membership more than 400 individuals and steadily growing since its inception in 1984 by Pastor Emmanuel Masih from a small room at workplace.
Beyond its regular Sunday services and ceremonial gatherings, PNLC actively engages in various ministries. These include a Women’s Ministry, Youth Ministry, Sunday School Program, and Outreach Ministry, reflecting the church’s commitment to holistic spiritual growth. Embracing Pentecostal beliefs in the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, PNLC advocates for practices such as Water Baptism, miracles, healings through the powerful name of Jesus Christ, and the expression of glossolalia (speaking in tongues).
