New City East Side

Sunday: Coffee @ 10:30 AM and Worship Service @ 11:00 AM

You often hear Christians sing about the greatness of God.  If God is as great and awesome as we declare Him to be, shouldn’t our faith in His greatness and awesomeness be seen in how we live, what we do, and how we deal with the challenges of life?  We are living in a time where our beliefs about God are being challenged by our society in a much greater way than in times past.  We’re also living in a time where the difficulties of life are mounting.  In times like these how do we live out our faith demonstrating the greatness and awesomeness of  God?  Do you believe that our God is truly great and awesome?  Join us in this new series we entitled, How Great And Awesome Is Our God.   As you follow us in this series, you will develop a better understanding of who our God is, and a deeper faith that demonstrates how great and awesome He is, in your life.

We invite you to join us in person or watch us live on our Facebook page. Every Sunday at 11 AM.

New Series Alert!


a family of missionary servants…

We believe the gospel changes everything, including our identities. Jesus doesn’t “save” us just for some time in the future, he calls us family, missionaries and servants today.

We are members of the New City Family of churches, a family of independent and interdependent local churches that work together for the advancement of the Gospel, working together to plant, replant and adopt churches.

A New Beginning

In the late 1800’s, First Baptist Church of Macon saw a need in the Mill Village located just across the Ocmulgee River and started the Baptist Sunday School of East Macon. That Sunday School grew into Warren Chapel in 1888 and seven years later became East Macon Baptist Church. By the 1950’s the church had grown to 1,000 members and was named East Side Baptist Church.

In the Late 1970’s East Side Baptist Church members left the old Mill Village and planted 3 new churches, one of which was named Northridge Baptist Church, located at 2360 Gray Highway. For many years the church served the communities surrounding them in both Bibb and Jones County, growing to multiple services and the construction of new facilities.

After recent years of decline in membership, on July 12, 2020 the members of Northridge Baptist Church made the courageous decision to merge with New City Church, Macon and work together to start a new church in the Northridge location. This brave and exciting decision has led to the planting of New City Church, East Side.

On January 10, 2020 we officially launched as New City East Side. We are excited about all that God has already done and all he has in store for our future! If you would like to be a part of this church replant we would love to have you join us! We are gathering for worship every Sunday at 11:00am.
