New Testament Church Ministries

About

OUR HISTORYNew Testament Church, affectionately known as "The MENT" had its beginnings on October 6, 1974, worshiping at the Cavalier Manor Elementary School Auditorium in Portsmouth, Virginia during that time the membership continued to grow under the leadership of the late Bishop Charles H. Bowens. Shortly after purchasing land on Rapidan Street, New Testament Baptist Church became non-denominational and changed its name to New Testament Church. Bishop Bowens went home with the Lord Jesus Christ in the year 2001, and Elder Jerome L. Williams, an original and home grown member, and then minister, became our new pastor.Currently under Bishop Jerome L. Williams D. Min leaders, the mission, vision and membership has grown to over 2,200 members as of January 2013. New Testament Church currently has more than 40 ministries and recently opened a new sanctuary as well as many other grand accomplishments. We are guided by the motto: Changing Hearts by Keeping It Real.
