La Mesa Partnership

La Mesa Presbyterian Church opened their pantry in 2008 as a food pantry affiliated with the Roadrunner Food Bank system. The pantry is able to help 100's of families per month. New Life regularly donates to this mission of La Mesa.

We Care About the Earth

Presbyterians for Earth Care (then Presbyterians for Restoring Creation) was founded in 1995 as a national, grassroots organization to support people of faith working towards “environmental wholeness with social justice.” PEC helps the church to fulfill its current environmental policies, to create new policies and practices, and to energize and educate church members about eco-justice, the well-being of all human kind on a thriving earth.

Family Promise of Abq

Family Promise of Albuquerque is a non-profit organization that assists families who are at risk for homelessness, currently experiencing homelessness or recently exiting homelessness. This community is made up of over 700 volunteers from 21 different faith communities in the Albuquerque and Rio Rancho area. New Life volunteers by preparing and having meals with Family Promise families.

Cetaly Partnership

Cetaly's specializes in optimizing food-grade media for spontaneously immortalized animal cells used to make human food. Heady stuff, we know. New Life shares Cetaly's focus that in as few as 10-years, humanity could see food shortages at an unprecedented scale due to population growth and shortages in agriculture lands. New Life has partnered with Cetaly by simply letting them use our property to develop new products that promote sustainable food supplies for years to come. We hope to allow them to continue their work discovering new innovations that will further reduce the carbon footprint of cultured meat.

Labyrinth at New Life

The outdoor Labyrinth at New Life Presbyterian Church in Albuquerque is an example of the eleven-circuit labyrinths. Our outdoor labyrinth is open to the public every day from dawn to dusk. The labyrinth does not have electric lighting to facilitate night walks. We try very hard to maintain the labyrinth path and keep it free from debris. However, our New Mexican winds happily blow things in from the street. Please be careful. You walk at your own risk. There is never a fee charged for labyrinth walks at New Life, however, donations are always accepted (click donate icon above). Any money collected goes toward the improvement and maintenance of the labyrinth and the surrounding landscaping. Please do not feel obligated to make a donation and enjoy yourself!
