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.


Concert of Prayer

Join us for a time of prayer at the church building.

Christmas with Dignity is a way for parents in our community to receive assistance without the embarrassment of asking for help. Showing God’s love in this practical way enables dads and moms an opportunity to provide a joyful experience for their children, even if they need a little help to make it happen.

We have partnered with Codington County Court Services, Midwest Bible Camp, Serenity Hills, and Celebrate Recovery to gather “wish lists” for local kids. These gifts will be returned to New Life and then distributed to parents so they can give them to their children. 

Stop by the tree in the foyer on Sunday morning if you’d like to pick up a tag and purchase gifts.


We are updating our Church Family Directory.

Look for a card to fill out as you enter the auditorium the next couple of weeks -OR- you can fill out this form right now on your computer or phone. If you have a photo you’d like us to use, please send it to Rachel (rachels@newlifeefree.org).

CERTAINLY YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT JESUS BEFORE, BUT WHO IS HE REALLY?

Monday nights in the month of January we are going discover who the true Jesus is. You will be fascinated to learn that Jesus broke the status quo of his day and time and was wildly different than most people’s expectations. Whether you have been in church a long time or have never been before, you are invited to join us beginning Monday, January 10 to DISCOVER THE REAL JESUS!
