Our Ministry
In 1997, Dennis Sego felt led of the Lord to start a ministry
that would open church doors to a group of people who wanted to
worship the Lord together in a place where they could feel free to
praise God and not be concerned with financial standings, planned
programs or social status.
A small building out in the country in Byron, Georgia is where
the first service was held. The church name was Lakeview Old
Country Church with a mission statement “Let’s go back to I
remember when”. This statement is from a song written by Robin
Sego giving the message going back to a time and place when you
could take folks at their words and hearts were changed and not
just stirred.
Dennis felt that God wanted a place where people could once
again sing the songs they were familiar with and stand up and
testify about what God had done for them no matter how little or
how big and the people together were the church and not a certain
group of leaders and a planned program. The little church in the
woods began to grow with a faithful few who enjoyed the worship
services and ministering.
It was in 2004, that God made it possible to move the church to
a bigger facility at a better location with a fellowship hall and
more Sunday School rooms. At first, it was thought impossible that
are small fellowship would be able to afford such a nice building
in a great location in Macon, Georgia. The Sego family with other
church members agreed that if this is God’s will, He will make a
way.
Through much prayer and faith, God took what we thought was
impossible and made it possible. The church built on the same
principals as started above is now New Haven Church of the Lord
Jesus Christ. Dennis Sego along with his Dad, Lamar Sego and
Associate Ministers Percy Skinner and John Newberry are faithful
ministers bringing God’s word to our church each Sunday Morning.
Our belief is based on the Apostolic faith. The Bible says we are
built upon the foundation of the apostles and the prophets with
Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. We believe that
God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself and for as
many of us has been baptized into Christ have put on Christ
therefore, believing that we are complete in Jesus.
Please continue to check our site each month for scriptures and
words of encouragement. Each one of our ministers or other church
members will have something to share with you that God has laid on
their hearts.
We would like to welcome you to visit and worship with us at New
Haven Church of the Lord Jesus Christ located in Macon, Georgia
4460 Raley Rd. Turn off Eisenhower Parkway by Northern Tool onto
