New Life Leadership

TIM & TIFFANY FRUITS

SENIOR PASTORS

Tim Fruits grew up in Warrenton, Missouri where he was saved at a Clyde Dupin crusade in 1988. Following an encounter with God at the age of twenty, Tim moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma to attend Rhema Bible School. While studying at Rhema he also completed an internship at Guts Church where he served in the youth, college and media ministries. It was at Guts Church where Tim met his wife, Tiffany Tabor.

Tiffany was raised in Wichita, KS and is the daughter of Pastor Kit and Vicki Tabor, who founded New Life Covenant Church when she was 16 years old.

After attending Trinity Academy for high school Tiffany moved to Tulsa, OK to attend Oral Roberts University. In 2003 Tiffany began working at Guts Church where she helped direct the youth ministry staff, event staff, internship staff, as well as serving as the Senior Pastor’s assistant.

In 2014 they felt led to move to Wichita, KS to support Pastor Kit and Vicki at New Life Covenant Church. The church was growing both in size and vision and in 2015, Pastor Kit asked Tim to join the New Life Staff as the Associate Pastor. Tim and Tiffany supported Pastor Kit and Vicki and the growing NLCC family by furthering the vision. In 2018 the church continued to grow, as did the staff, so Pastor Tim was promoted to the Executive Pastor role to assist Pastor Kit in leading the church staff. In 2021 Pastor Tim & Tiffany were selected by the Elders and approved unanimously by the congregation to serve as Senior Pastors at New Life Covenant Church.

Serving in the church is a lifelong calling on Tim and Tiffany’s life. As parents to two children (Gracelynn and Tabor) they have a passion to involve their whole family in the purpose of kingdom building through the local church.

Kit Tabor, along with his wife Vicki Tabor, founded New Life Covenant Church in 1996 and, for 24 years, reached countless individuals and families through the word he shared and the life he lived. He gave his life to Luke 4:18: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” And that is exactly what he did. In October 2020, he transitioned to spend eternity with Jesus.

He charged the New Life Family with this call in his final sermon:

RISE UP, OH ARMY OF THE LORD. YOUR MARCHING ORDERS HAVE BEEN GIVEN.

RISE UP, INTERCESSORS, EVANGELISTS, PROPHETS, APOSTLES, PASTORS, GIVERS, SERVANTS, SAINTS OF THE LORD.

IT IS TIME NOW FOR THE LIGHTS TO UNITE AND TO SHINE BRIGHTLY THE GLORY OF THE LORD.
