We encourage you to fill out the online Friendship Register when you worship with us online or in person. You can share prayer requests, ask questions about our ministries, or just let us know that you’d like someone to contact you.


Deeper in Relationships

From June 2021 to August 2022 we will go deeper in relationships with people outside and inside the church body to intentionally share the grace and love of Jesus Christ with them and to grow together as his disciples.

The Gospels are full of stories of Jesus intentionally engaging those inside and outside the family of God. We want to know and obey the words of Jesus and we also want to emulate his lifestyle. We will be a people who are willing to get out of our comfort zone and make building relationships a higher priority in our everyday lives. We know that in our post-Christian culture it is a poor strategy to sit back and wait for people to attend our worship services. We challenge every person at New Life to meet, talk to, get to know, and go deeper with at least 1 person within our church family and 1 person outside our church family each month!

In the coming months you can anticipate sermons about reaching out to others with the love of Christ, evangelism training taking place in Life Groups, continued times of prayer, and an overall focus on building relationships with people in the six counties all around us.

Awana Advent Resource for Families

Awana has a FREE family devotional series for Advent, “The Promise of a Savior. This resource will equip you to lead intentional time and conversation with your family around the promise of our savior, Jesus Christ. You’ll find weekly family discussion guides, printable activity sheets, and more.

Here are just a few of the features in the Advent devotional: 

Parent Prep: This is a short video to help parents and guardians prepare to have a time of intentional discipleship with their children. Each video is less than two minutes long and will provide background on each week’s lesson.

Family Discussion: This guide will lead families through Scripture passages as they consider Jesus Christ, the promised Savior. Families will find suggestions for prayer, Scripture to memorize, and questions from the story to consider.  

Family Fun Guide: This section will reinforce each week’s theme with extra opportunities for FUN! Families can use the optional activities in the family fun guide to intentionally draw their children into this season of watching and waiting for the coming of Christ! They will find coloring pages, printable flashcards, a music playlist, and more for kids of all ages to dig into the theme each week.
