Mother's Day Service, Sunday, May 10, 2026

What’s an amazing Mother’s Day Service we had this Sunday at New Beginnings Church with first time guests and second time return guests. The Word of God was preached making a powerful impact to the congregation on the story of Elisha and the Shunammite Women (2 Kings 4:8-37). The title of the sermon, “Great Godly Woman make Great Moms,” took a whole new meaning to our lives. What a revelation! A special thanks to the Men’s Ministry who catered the reception following the service under the direction of Senior Pastor David Soto who is an amazing cook. Best shrimp and egg fried rice I’ve ever tasted! Thanks for all the food donations.  Everything was delicious and five stars. Thanks for all the gracias gifts from everyone and the gifts to all the Mothers. We honored sister Beryl Richard’s with the “Mother of the Year Award.” Beryl is 83 years old filled with wisdom, love and compassion for everyone. We are so blessed to have her in our congregation. See the pictures provided below of those who were in attendance for the reception.

What better way to serve our community than to partner with the American Red Cross and host our First Blood Drive. On April 20th we got together to save lives.  Our goal was set to 20 pints and we surpassed by obtaining 25 pints. We hosted a free Barbecue with hamburgers, hot dogs, fresh fruit and  a grand Luau.  Everyone who volunteered and donated blood received a Hawaiian Lei, fresh fruit and amazing upside down pineapple cupcakes.  My amazing recruits outdid themselves decorating.  Special "Thanks" to Joanna Figueroa, Jessica Apablaza, Margie Santiago, Charlene Tirado, Yessenia Canuto, Fermin Canuto, Alexis Soto, Fernanda Canuto and Pastor David Soto who helped set-up, volunteered during the event and helped with all the clean-up.  A special thanks to Shilpa who helped with registration and the amazing staff from the American Red Cross.  Most importantly, I want to thank all the donors who gave blood, my family, friends and community.  You are the best people on earth!

Baptism Service of June 25, 2023

Our Senior Pastor David Soto was able to reunite through Facebook with his childhood friend Domingo during the Pandemic in 2022. One day his friend was looking through social media when he saw our Pastor preaching a Sunday Sermon.  They connected and through facetime, Pastor David gave his friend Domingo and daughter Tiffany discipleship classes. They accepted Christ as Lord and Savior and desired to be baptized.  As Pastor David  continued to also teach discipleship classes in our local church, New Beginnings House of Worship, others were added to be baptized, they were Juana Carranza and Lucy Crespo. On June 25th, 2023 Domingo and his family flew in from Florida to New York to be baptized.  His lovely wife, Blanche, also joined them and was baptized. God has a way of bringing people together and His Kingdom continues to grow daily.  We must continue to press forward preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ to all mankind using even social media to share the Good News. Here are some of the pictures and the gathering that followed.  We had an awesome weekend reuniting our families. 

VBS "The Miracle of Jesus" - December 18, 2022

On Sunday, December 18, 2022 our church celebrated, "The Miracle of Jesus,"  at 10:00 am.  We had a visitor from the Board of Education attend our event. Our worship was prepared with our Praise Dance Team and they did a magnificent job bringing Christmas songs to life.  We had everyone in the congregation dress up as in Bible time attire. The costumes were magnificent.  We all traveled to the days of Bethlehem and had passports for the experience of a life time.  We ate fresh unleavened bread with honey from the Bethlehem Bakery, visited Bethlehem's Toy Shoppe, children went fishing, they visited The Stable and got frankincense for the Spice store.  There were several stations giving families the opportunity to experience what it was like when Jesus was born with an Innkeeper telling her experience on that glorious day. All the children who attended were also given the opportunity to dress up and be part of "The Miracle of Jesus."  Pastor Marisol Soto dedicated her time creating costumes and had an awesome team of volunteers from the Children's Ministry decorating and preparing for the event.  A special thanks to everyone who gave a helping hand.  It was an unforgettable event. Here is our gallery of that amazing day!
