This Week at New Life

Sunday, September 1, 2024

Worship Services - 8:30am and 11:00am

Nursery care for children 0-2 is available during the 11:00 service.

Children’s Church for ages 3-5 is available during the sermon portion of the 11:00 service.

You might be tempted to think that the historical events (Jews being liberated from Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea, wandering in the wilderness, giving of the Ten Commandments, God dwelling with his people in the tabernacle) that took place in Exodus have nothing to say to those of us living in our day and time. Don’t give into that temptation! Every single page of Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, is relevant for our everyday life! In the book of Exodus we will explore themes like: the fiery holiness of God, where we can find true freedom, deliverance from sin and slavery, the presence of God, the problem of idolatry, and most importantly we will see that Jesus is the greater Moses and he is the only One that gives us the freedom we desperately need. We are praying that this sermon series through the amazing book of Exodus deepens your knowledge, and your affection, for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!


Join us on Sunday morning to pray over our worship services!


Connection Cards

We have Connection Cards available on the backs of the chairs in the sanctuary. Guests can fill them out and take them to the Info Center for a free gift. Anyone can use them to submit prayer requests, request more information about ministries, update personal contact information, ask a question, or give feedback. Cards can be dropped into the offering boxes at the entrances to the sanctuary.

Children’s Ministry Serving Opportunities

Awana, Club 56 and Sunday school will all begin in early September and to make those happen, we need those of you, with a heart for children and their families, to serve. There is also a need to grow our New Life Nursery team along with our Children’s Church teaching team. These 2 ministries run year-round.

We hope that you will prayerfully consider being a part of our Children’s Ministry Teams. You can read more about them and sign up to serve on our website or you can contact Janet Stee for more information (janets@newlifeefree.org or 886-1977).

Women’s Revelation Bible Study


Do you have extra Bibles at home?

A member of our community is collecting Bibles to send overseas. If you have used Bibles that you would like to donate, you can place them in the box near the office door.


Upcoming Short-Term Missions Trips

Steve Austvold is leading two upcoming missions trips. Teams would be partnering with the EFCA Crisis Response program and working with other EFCA churches to serve communities that have been affected by natural disasters. The buttons below will give you more details about these trips. If you are interested in serving, let us know. We have a few people from New Life that are interested and may want to travel together.


Each month, we will be highlighting a missionary or organization that is supported by New Life. We encourage you to be praying for them and also learning more about how God is working through them in their area of ministry.

The Fraher Family will be visiting New Life on September 22 and sharing about their ministry during our worship services.
