Pastor Dan Switzer
& First Lady Janice Switzer

Pastor Dan Switzer & his family came to Sand Springs 34 years ago with a vision to change the world, so they have begun by changing our city. Revival has exploded at New Life Tabernacle; many lives have been changed under their leadership.

We strive to promote Apostolic power that changes lives and expands the Kingdom of God through a balanced ministry of biblical preaching and demonstrative worship.

We offer a variety of ministries, for both children and adults, in a safe and caring environment. An annual background check is required for all volunteers who work with children.

Sunday School

Stevie & Alicia Johns

The purpose of New Life Tabernacle Sunday School is to help your child come to experience, love & follow Jesus.

Experience: In each Sunday school class, your child will learn age appropriate Bible stories, discovering the God’s plan of love for all people. He/she will meet Jesus Christ and encounter His love which is the central theme throughout the Bible. Your child will also grow in Bible study, prayer and worship.

Love: Each class encourages your child to apply Bible learning to his life. The goal of Bible teaching is to help God’s children understand the world through their Father’s perspective and live the joyful life God intended by adopting His values of love and care for others.

Follow: Your child will also grow in his understanding about what it means to be a follower of Jesus. Using the gifts He has given, your child will learn that faith is an active, every day part of life; that loving God and loving your neighbor is not just reserved for Sunday, but is a way of life.
