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.
Steve Austvold will be sharing during our worship services this week.
Sunday School classes will not be meeting this summer.
We will have coffee and cookies available in the foyer between the two worship services. It’s a great time to catch up with a friend or meet someone new!
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.

Join us for a church picnic and baptisms at Stokes-Thomas City Park!
We’ll be grilling burgers and hotdogs - we’re asking you to bring a side or dessert to share. After the picnic we’ll walk over to the beach for baptisms. There are some picnic tables, but you may want to bring a chair if you’d like to sit to watch the baptisms.
If you or your child/teen would like to be baptized, please let us know! You can call the church office (886-1977) or send an email to Lezlie (lezliee@newlifeefree.org).
Annual Meeting
Sunday, August 25, 9:45am (between the worship services)
Everyone is welcome. We will hear reports from elders, pastors, and ministry leaders. Members will be voting on the proposed budget for 2024-25, a proposed roof replacement project, and elder candidates. Printed reports with more detailed information on all of these things are available in the church foyer.
Please mark your calendars and plan to attend!
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).
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.
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.
