Jonnie & Barbara Nickles were married in December of 1967. They grew up in the church and God led them into the ministry at an early age. After serving faithfully in a local church in several capacities for 14 years they were released into full time ministry.

Jonnie and Barbara Nickles

In 1984 the Lord led them to Rome, New York. Even though there were already numerous Catholic churches, as well as many other types of churches to choose from, they knew that God had brought them to Rome for a great purpose.

They came with their two teenage children, Pearl and Jonnie and the family began to minister together. The Church Fellowship began in January of 1985 when we began having services on Sunday morning and Wednesday evening at the Lake Delta Fire Barn (the services were extremely lively when the fire whistle would go off during the service.

Then in August we moved into the former bar and disco (the old Powerhouse) on Rt. 69 W. and Tannery Road. Renovation began right away to change the disco powerhouse into a Prayer Powerhouse. The property was rented for a year and then purchased. In August of 1988 we broke ground to build an addition and, doing the work ourselves, paying as we went, we completed the building and dedicated it in August of 1990.

In the Summer of 2002 Jonnie & Barbara Nickles were asked to return to their home church to be the senior pastors there. After much prayer and seeking God for His direction they were led to set in their Associate Pastors, Dan and Pearl Sanborn as senior pastors of the Rome church and they took the position as senior pastors in the church in Elkton, Maryland, Pleasant Hill Worship Center. After completing a large building project, growing the church, and doing a great work of the Lord there, they have now returned home to LIFE CHURCH, and are open to all that God has for their future!

The Nickles are delighted to have their whole family working together in the Lord’s work. It is such a joy to them to see their children, Pastors Dan & Pearl Sanborn and Pastors Jon & Debbie Nickles, their grandchildren and great grandchild in the church. There is no greater joy than to see our children walk in truth. All the praise and thanks go to the Lord from whom all blessings come!

Happy Father’s Day! We are all here because of a Happy Father’s Day!
We are all here because of a father! Our Father in heaven, and our earthly father. Today, we give thanks to God for them, and for allowing us to be born. We honor you fathers, and thank God for you!

The world seems to be doing its best to weaken and displace the role of fathers in our lives, but our prayer is for strong men of God to lead their families in the ways of the Lord.

We are SO very grateful for the strong men of God, and pray for continued strength, guidance, and wisdom from the Lord.

“The righteous man who walks in integrity and lives life in accord with his [godly] beliefs— How blessed [happy and spiritually secure] are his children after him [who have his example to follow].”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭20:7‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“In the [reverent] fear of the Lord there is strong confidence, And His children will [always] have a place of refuge. The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that leads to obedience and worship] is a fountain of life, So that one may avoid the snares of death.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭14:26-27‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Happy Mother’s Day! What a high calling and bles Happy Mother’s Day!
What a high calling and blessing it is to be a part of God’s plan in this way. To raise children that He loves, sees, and knows is one of the greatest responsibilities and highest honors. They are His gift and your heritage. We honor you today and say thank you for all you do, seen and unseen, to care for and nurture these gifts from God 🤍

“Behold, children are a heritage and gift from the Lord, The fruit of the womb a reward.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭127:3‬

“For You formed my innermost parts; You knit me [together] in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks and praise to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from You, When I was being formed in secret, And intricately and skillfully formed [as if embroidered with many colors] in the depths of the earth. Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were appointed for me, When as yet there was not one of them [even taking shape]. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭139:13-17‬

“For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My [own] life so that I may take it back. No one takes it away from Me, but I lay it down voluntarily. I am authorized and have power to lay it down and to give it up, and I am authorized and have power to take it back. This command I have received from My Father.””
