Leadership
Pastor Gabriel Smith
Pastor Gabriel and his family have served the Lord faithfully since their youth. They come from past filled with strong ministers and ministered themselves for many years in evangelistic ministry. They sang together as a group and Gabriel preached in many different churches.
God led them into Pastorship at New Life Outreach in 2022.
Since becoming pastor, he has carried on the vision of New Life Outreach with prayerful wisdom and a strong attention to the leading of the Spirit and a solid foundation in the Word of God.
Both he and Lorena are gifted preachers and prayer warriors. They challenge us with vision of growth as we reach out to our community, as we grow as a body and in our personal walks with the Lord. They keep worship alive and the truth of God's Word front and center.
Our Pastor feels the weight of the charge he has been given that was set in motion by other faithful men and women before him. He carries with great humility and strength the mission to reach up to God and out to people as our church continues to build and grow.
He serves alongside our assistant pastors with a spirit of unity that allows all of them to be their very best and together they are making a difference in our world.
Assistant Pastor Taylor Hylton
Taylor Hylton and his wife Sarah have followed the Lord all their lives. They both worked in ministry as teens leading prayer groups and teaching the Word of God. Taylor was called to preach at a young age and he and Sarah both are powerful ministers of the Word of God and have preached and sang at different churches before they were called to Pastorship.
Taylor became a deacon at Webb Chapel Church of God in 2013 and became assistant Pastor there in 2015. They served there until coming to New Life Outreach as he and Sarah felt led to serve here.
After coming to New Life, they worked in the Youth ministry and Sunday School before becoming assistant pastors in 2021.
Taylor has a profound gift of giving the Word of God from a place of depth and prayerful study. His preaching shines light on the character and plan of God that makes you hungry to know more. Sarah brings heart felt messages that lead us into kingdom living and great desire to be the light God has called us to be. God uses both he and Sarah greatly in song and prayer ministry and teaching also.
They stand alongside Gabriel and Lorena to bring about the vision God has for our church as we move the Kingdom forward in Fort Gay and surrounding areas.

Assistant Pastor Aaron Walker
Aaron Walker has been a preacher of the Gospel for 20 years and he and Marsha have made their home at New Life Outreach for the last 10 years. They have been assistant Pastors at New Life Outreach since 2022.
He prayerfully seeks the Lord for messages that will produce growth in our daily lives and help us see the faithfulness of God in every area of our lives and Marsha is a member of our very anointed praise team and teaches from a very caring hear. She carries the joy of the Lord into her worship and her teaching.
Aaron's attention to detail brings about sermons and teaching that draw depth from parables and real-life happenings that wind into truths that help you see the hand of God at work more clearly. His love for the Word creates a humble and giving heart that inspires us all.
Aaron also carries a great responsibility for the vision of growth as we build our new youth and ministry center called the Kings Court. It has been years in the planning, and he has remained faithful to the vision cast and the work it took to bring it into fruition.
Aaron and Marsha stand alongside Pastor Gabriel and Lorena and give him full support in leading this body of believers to the next level of service and outreach.
