Senior Pastors

Peyton and John Allen

Peyton and John Allen are passionate about equipping the body of Christ to experience the love of God and advance the Kingdom in their daily lives. Both Peyton and John were born and raised in Eastern Pennsylvania and attended Moravian College, where they met while pursuing degrees in counseling and ministry. After college, the Allen’s felt called by the Lord to start a house church ministry in Allentown. After several years of hosting worship and prayer in their home, they started New Life Church to create space for more people to experience what God was doing in the city. 

When they’re not serving at New Life Church, Peyton and John are busy raising a beautiful family of five children who are all full of energy. In their freetime, you’ll find John in the CrossFit gym and Peyton at Steamtown Coffee, where she hosts a young women’s Bible Study once every week.
