Don Milton served as the Lead Pastor of New Life Vineyard for 28 years. He is now Pastor Emeritus. He has been in ministry for over 51 years. Don and Melody, his wife, are in their forty-third year of Marriage. They met while attending Southern Bible College in Houston, Texas where they received Bachelor’s Degrees in Christian Ministry and Education. Don went on to receive a Bachelor’s Degree in Theology and then his Master’s from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

They both felt a call and commitment to God and His mission. They did not co-pastor, but Melody served beside him in all aspects of the church. Melody worked full-time as a nurse for 48 years to support the family and ministry.

Don continues to mentor and coach pastors, while serving in the Vineyard. They have two daughters Abby and Gabby who love the Lord.
