The New Life Seventh-day Adventist Church in Oshawa, Ontario, started as North Oshawa SDA Church in 1992 and was founded to engage disconnected youth. Despite challenges, including plateauing before COVID-19 and aging membership, the church experienced a revival post-COVID with a younger generation bringing energy and new ideas. The core values of authenticity and intentional seeking of God remain central. The church aims to be relevant and inclusive, adapting to community needs rather than pursuing a trendy image. Matthew Feeley reflects on the church's journey, drawing parallels between personal challenges and the church's resilience and aspirations for growth.

Matthew Feeley is the pastor of the New Life SDA Church in Oshawa, Canada.
