Our Pastor
Pastor Cliff, Erin, and their kiddos
With over 20 years of pastoral experience, Cliff Forbes has dedicated his life to helping people encounter hope and purpose in Jesus. His ministry journey began as a youth pastor at New Beginnings Church of God in Meadville, Pennsylvania, where he served faithfully. God then opened the door for Cliff to lead an new work in Titusville, PA—planting a new campus that began in a local roller-skating rink and grew to the point of needing a permanent home. Through a unique partnership with a church that was closing, the new congregation was able to step into an existing facility and continue building a thriving ministry presence in the community.
When the senior pastor of New Beginnings retired, Cliff transitioned into that leadership role and spent the next decade guiding a healthy, vibrant church that became a beacon of hope in its region. After passing the baton to his executive pastor, Cliff stepped into a national leadership position focused on developing new pastors and equipping churches for effective ministry.
Now living in Mebane, North Carolina, Cliff and his wife, Erin, have felt a clear call from God to begin a new local work—a church dedicated to reaching those who need to find lasting hope in Jesus.
