Pastor Tom Morgan was born and raised right here in Ocala, Florida. With a heart for people and a deep love for God’s Word, he spent more than ten years serving as a youth pastor before God called him and his wife, Melissa, to plant a church in Inglis.
After faithfully serving there for several years, the Lord opened the door for them to return to East Ocala to begin a new work. In May, Pastor Tom and Sister Melissa celebrated eight years of leading New Life Pentecostal Church.
Together, they serve as lead pastors with a passion to see lives changed, families strengthened, and the power of God poured out in their community. Their down-to-earth spirit, love for people, and commitment to truth make New Life a church where everyone can feel at home.
Pastor Tom is grateful for the guidance of Elder Jeff Arnold, who serves as his adviser and confidant. Brother Arnold pastored in Gainesville, Florida, for more than 30 years before transitioning into a ministry of preaching and teaching in churches across the country. Known for his powerful preaching and deep love for the Word of God, he has impacted countless lives and continues to be a voice of wisdom and encouragement. His mentorship is a blessing to Pastor Tom and the New Life Pentecostal Church family.
