New Life Pentecostal Leaders
Meet Nashola Pryce
Pastor's Wife and Minister
Born and raised in Ottawa, Reverend Nashola Pryce, M.A., C.C.C., R.P. (Qualifying) has dedicated her life to the vibrancy of the local church. Her journey is defined by a "heart for the house," having served faithfully across nearly every pillar of ministry—from the energy of Youth Leadership and Worship to the strategic focus of Church Communications. Today, at New Life Pentecostal Church, she continues to pour into the community through Children’s and Ladies' Ministries, offering a presence that is as steady as it is nurturing. Her foundational belief is that the Word of God is most powerful when shared with warmth, making deep spiritual truths accessible and relevant to everyday life.
Nashola’s ministry extends beyond the pulpit and into the profound work of emotional restoration. As the founder of Sound Mind Counselling Services, she operates at the vital intersection of clinical excellence and spiritual insight. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and a Canadian Certified Counsellor, she brings an authoritative yet compassionate approach to mental health. Her practice is grounded in the conviction that true wholeness requires a "sound mind," helping individuals navigate anxiety and life’s transitions through a lens of biblical resilience and professional expertise.
As a licensed minister with the United Pentecostal Church International, Reverend Nashola stands as a mentor and guide for those seeking a more balanced, fulfilling life. Whether she is providing pastoral counseling, preaching or teaching from the Word, her voice carries the weight of experience and the gentleness of a shepherd. Alongside her husband, Pastor Pryce, she finds her greatest joy in their family, raising their children, Malachi and Arabella, with the same principles of grace and understanding that she shares with her congregation. Her life's work remains clear: to empower others to find the healing and strength necessary to flourish in their divine purpose.
