Michael & Janah Williams
Lead Pastors
New Life Chapel began as a dream in the heart of our lead Pastors, several years ago while they were on staff at a church in South Georgia. The calling was clear, and after much prayer and planning, Michael and Janah Williams moved to Madison, Alabama to launch New Life Chapel. They moved in the Summer of 2017, and launched New Life Chapel with a team of 35 people in January of 2018. They had 150 people at their first service, and since then God has continued to grow the congregation.
