New Life Church offers many programs and ministries. All volunteers and staff go through a Safe Church screening process. If you would like more information regarding any of these programs please contact the church office.
Worship Ministry:
We are called to worship God in every aspect of life. As a church, corporate worship is at the heart of our life together. The Worship Ministry leadership team works with the preaching team and worship team members, seeking the Spirit’s guidance to provide meaningful worship for those attending New Life Church. We seek to use the spiritual gifts of our members in the area of music, drama, dance, visual arts , the spoken word, prayer, giving, etc. to draw people into worship.
Worship Ministry Coordinator: Nicole Ensing
Children’s Worship:
Children's Worship has taken the needs of children into account and devised an exciting way to introduce them to the wonder of worship. This approach helps young children understand and participate in worship. Activities are developed around the order of worship found in Reformed Churches: we Assemble in God's Name, Proclaim God's Word, Give Thanks to God and Go in God's Name. Through storytelling, art and other activities, children can enter more deeply into the life of faith. We offer lessons on Parables, passages from the Old and New Testaments and stories that are part of the Liturgical Year.
Children do love and worship God. Children's Worship will provide stories and knowledge of scripture as well as offer a worshipping atmosphere where children will experience the awesome wonder of God. Our program runs during the Worship Service for children aged three through six.
Discipleship Hour:
Returns in the fall
Discipleship Hour is our adult teaching time and meets on Sunday mornings from 9:30 to 10:15. This year we are examing four areas of our faith, each of which corresponds with a certain Sunday of the month.
Each theme Sunday is led by a different Ne Life member gifted in that area. All are welcome to attend, regardless of your church affiliation. Coffee included.
Kids Focus:
Returns in the fall
Sunday mornings from 9:30 – 10:15, children in grades two through eight are invited to Kids Focus. During this time they will use drama, discussion, movement and art to focus on God's love.
Nursery:
Childcare for infants to age three is available during Discipleship Hour and the Worship Service. Children are also invited to the nursery when there is no Children's Worship and they are under four years old.
Big Kid Nursery (formerly Kid’s Co-op):
We are excited about BKN! We meet from 9:30 - 10:15 a.m. The Big Kid Nursery is for children age three to the end of grade one. There will be a craft each week with a small time of free play and then a story or song. The goal for our time together will be to provide a structured, low key place for kids to play while their parents are at Discipleship Hour or working in other programs.
Youth Ministry:
All teens attending high school and beyond are welcome to the New Life Youth Group. The goal of this group is to bring young people into a living relationship with Jesus and with each other. At youth group we have weekly Sunday evening meetings where we engage in thoughtful discussions, play fun games, and just plain act crazy. We are also very concerned with community issues and actively participate in service projects in the local area. Other social and fundraising events are also planned throughout the year.
