John Welsh
Senior Associate Pastor
John’s primary focus is serving as Missions Pastor. He and his wife Dottie are from Broomall, Pennsylvania, where they met and were married in 1971. Called to Maine in 1983, they have planted and pastored churches until coming to New Life in 1999. John’s desire is for God’s people to unconditionally “be His”, and “do His will”. John believes this is accomplished as we consistently encounter God. He sees Short Term Missions as a means for this to be facilitated as we are faithful to Messiah’s Commission (Matt. 28:18-20). Dottie is a leader on the Women’s Ministry Team whose heartbeat is to equip women to walk in the fullness of their inheritance as daughters of the Most High. They live in Buxton, ME and have four adult children; Jesse, Tim, Jenn and Becky, and 8 grandchildren.
