The New Life Fellowship (NLF) began in a small way in 1983, when the lord Jesus Christ impressed upon pastor V.M. Samuel and his wife, Somey, to move out of Mumbai and pioneer a church in Mangalore in Karnataka. God enabled them to envision a church planting movement throughout Karnataka, which still remains one of the most unreached states in south India.

In 1987, Pastor V.M. Samuel and Somey handed over the churches in Mangalore to Pastor Donald and Winnie Menezes and shifted base to Bangalore to lead the church planting movement of the New Life Fellowship. They continue to serve their Master as the Senior Pastors of the New Life Fellowship Churches, overseeing more than 120 churches in South India & the Middle East.
