In the Gospel of John we are going to go in-depth and look at the single most amazing human (God-man) to ever walk the face of this earth, Jesus Christ. Throughout this study in John we are going to be encouraged, shocked, convicted, and left with a deep sense of awe in regards to Jesus of Nazareth. The deepest yearnings of our soul will only be satisfied by the truths that we find in this book. Invite your family, friends, colleagues and join us as we gaze intently at the One who created the world and yet loved us enough to die for us.
Worship Services - 9:00am and 11:00am
Nursery care for children 0-2 is available. Children’s Church for kids age 3-5.
Sunday School for all ages | 10:15-11:00am
Our American culture is working overtime to shape the way that we think, feel, and live when it comes to our sexuality. Which means that the very worst thing the church can do is to remain silent about sex, same-sex attraction, transgenderism, porn, purity culture, and the temptations that we all face each and every day. It has been said that the more religious a family is the less likely they are to talk about sex in the home. This needs to change in the home and in the church! When it comes to this class we want you to bring your questions. We want you to bring your friends. Together we will discover just how incredibly relevant God’s Word is when it comes to addressing all these topics. Pastor Michael will be leading this 8 week class and it all gets started on Sunday, Feb 19th, 10:15 AM. Nursery is available and there are Sunday School classes for all of your children. Hope to see you there!

Men’s Retreat shirts are here!
We promised shirts to the guys who registered for the men’s retreat by February 5 and we have them now. There were a few delays caused by weather at the printer’s location and then weather here that affected delivery, but the shirts finally arrived this week! Stop at the room across from the nursery to pick up your shirt.

Ladies! Save the date to join us on March 31 and April 1st at New Life Church for our annual Spring Retreat. As a church, we have been seeking to grow in being prepared for sharing the reason for the hope that we have in an ever-changing world that seeks to "progress.” We desire to help equip you with Biblical answers to tough questions. For this year's retreat we will hear from speaker Amy Davison of Mama Bear Apologetics on the topics of apologetics and Biblical sexuality. Amy co-wrote Mama Bear Apologetics Guide to Sexuality. These topics are not just for moms and dads of school aged children, but for all spiritual parents as well. Join us for a time of learning, Q&A, great food, and great fellowship.
We will have some of Amy’s books available in the hallway across from the nursery (suggested donation: $10).
Thank you from Warwicks…
A big thank you for the moving help from New Life Church! Chet and Steve Koistinen, Hank Roso, Mike and Karen Harlan, Doug Modica, helped us move on Saturday and food provided by Denny and Arlene Milton was so appreciated. We are very blessed!

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.
Opportunity to serve our Youth…
Each Wednesday we end our youth group evening with a snack and time to hang out together after their small group time. People from our New Life family have been providing snack for us - either homemade or picked up at a store. The students really enjoy this time! If you would like to bring a snack you can sign up using the button below (the sign up is near the bottom of the page), or call the church office (886-1977) and we can help you get signed up.
