Our Story

New Birth Worship Center is entering an exciting new chapter. Founded in November 2004 by Rev. Earlie Dixon to serve the unchurched, our ministry had grown from eight charter members to a vibrant congregation. Following 21 years of faithful service, Rev. Dixon has retired to focus on pastoral care and his wife of over 40 years, while Mother Lutrille  Dixon now serves as  the President of the Mother's Board  was consecrated as Mother Deaconess (Deaconate Order) on First Sunday, June 7, 2026.

We are pleased to announce that Rev. W. F. Rayford Jr. was unanimously elected and officially installed as our new Senior Pastor and Overseer-CEO on April 19, 2026. An Anderson native with over 20 years of ministry experience, Pastor Rayford serves alongside his wife, First Lady Talisha D. Rayford "Lady T", and their five children together. We look forward to our continued growth and community impact under this new leadership.

New Birth Worship Center began as a church but grew into a Kingdom movement. Through outreach, discipleship, prayer, and community transformation, God expanded the vision beyond the sanctuary walls. Families were restored, lives changed, and hope revived across Anderson as New Birth continued it's mission to Reach, Restore, and Raise generations for Christ.

New Birth is headed toward greater impact, deeper discipleship, and expanded community outreach. We envision a thriving ministry that equips leaders, restores families, empowers youth, and spreads the Gospel beyond Anderson.
Through faith, innovation, and unity, New Birth will continue building lives, transforming communities, and advancing God's Kingdom for generations ahead.
