This year, NewLife Industries is celebrating 46 years in business! As we look back over our story, we can’t help but feel so grateful to our customers, our partners, and most of all, to God. For more than four decades, NewLife has been able to serve as a support arm to Christian ministries across the U.S. and around the world — and it’s all because of you!
I’d love to share how NewLife became the company it is today. It’s a story I grew up hearing from my dad, Richard Humble, who founded NewLife back in 1979 — and it’s a story I now get to share as his daughter and as NewLife’s Chief Operating Officer.
Our partnership with NewLife began 22 years ago in a nation where merely sharing Christ can mean imprisonment or death. By God’s grace, we planted 6 churches and built a Christian school before persecution forced us to flee to the U.S. Yet, our mission continued.
From the U.S., we train believers to reach Muslims and Hindus with the love of Jesus, lead church mission trips to one of the most densely populated Hindu and Muslim cities in America, and continue supporting the 6 original churches and school abroad.
In 2018, we returned to our home country to find even greater need — families trapped in slave labor and children without shoes, yet their hearts remained open to hope. With NewLife’s support, 11 families were freed and 3,000 pairs of shoes and warm clothing were distributed.
During COVID, NewLife helped us provide food and Bibles to children and adults, including many Muslims. As a result, entire villages began asking for Bible teachers. Today, 50 Children’s Churches meet weekly, reaching over 1,000 children with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. What once seemed impossible to even fathom: BUT GOD!
Amoon recently took me to see the second-largest Hindu Temple in the world, just 30 miles from his home in New Jersey — right here in America! It was literally overwhelming and a powerful reminder that our nation desperately needs the one true God and the truth of Jesus Christ.

Nearly 20 years ago, NewLife partnered with the Good News Center, India to help fund the construction and renovation of several Christian orphanages. Most recently, NewLife provided the primary funding for a new Assembly Hall that now serves 192 children with daily care and education. The facility also helps sustain GNC’s ministry by generating ongoing income through weekend rentals for weddings and community events.
Reaching 19 Million People with God’s Word
One of GNC’s greatest challenges was the lack of a Bible in the Sambalpuri language, spoken by 19 million people. With NewLife’s support, GNC launched a translation project, resulting in 2.2 million copies of the Gospel of Matthew and New Testaments printed and distributed in their heart language.
Work is now underway on a translation of the Old Testament and an audio New Testament for the 7 million who cannot read.

After Hurricane Mitch in 1998, many families were forced to live in Nicaragua’s Limonal dump. Sadly, there are many families still living there today, scavenging through the garbage for food. With NewLife’s help we have increased our Feeding Ministry from one day per week to feeding 300 children four days per week.
NewLife has helped us build multiple churches and replace plastic and tin shacks with wood homes that provide much needed shelter and security for destitute families, many of whom are single mothers. A church structure costs only $2,000 and seats 150 people. Family Homes are only $600.
Thanks to NewLife and everyone who supports us through your T-Shirt purchases. Together, you have made an impact on our Ministry!
To God be all the Glory! Larry Cochran, Founder, Generational Missions

We recently received this letter and wanted to share it with you, as these donations would not be possible without your support!
Much like the rest of the world, NewLife® Industries and its affiliates are experiencing significant issues securing supplies due to the worldwide pandemic. Most apparel-based businesses across the United States are reporting increasing difficulties sourcing t-shirts and other items due to shipping delays, production issues, and price increases.
I pray this letter finds you and your family healthy and well during this difficult time in our nation. During our 40 years of business, whether you have bought one shirt or a thousand, our customers are the heart of our company’s success and we are so thankful for each of you!
As the world navigates the COVID-19 health crisis, we want to assure you that our number one focus is to maintain the same level of availability and support that you’ve come to expect as our valued customer. We’d like to update you on the steps that we are taking to mitigate risks and ensure that NewLife Industries continues to meet your needs through this health crisis.
NewLife is celebrating 40 years in business! We’re looking back to our history, and have re-released our classic “Jesus is Our Hope” design – one that means a lot to us as a company, and especially to our founder.
