Adult Sunday School Class
10:00am in the Fellowship Hall
Church History, it's not about names, dates and facts. It's about the flesh and blood people of God, those who are members of our spiritual "family tree." It's a fascinating journey, telling the story of how God has preserved His church from the time the Apostles handed off the baton at the close of Acts 28 to the present.
Come with us as we travel through time and discover how, through the ups and downs, and the challenges and triumphs of life, Christ's Church has prevailed and overcome through the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimonies.
This will be a fun and informative study, one that raises our vision of God and teaches us what faithfulness to God really looks like. Join us on Sunday mornings and get introduced to some of the family members you didn't know you had!
Join us for a special event on Sunday, January 12 as we build a Journey Wall together - creating a visual display of God’s handiwork and faithfulness over the years, which has made New Life Church what it is today and sets our course for the future. Whether you have been on this journey with us for several weeks or years, you have witnessed God working uniquely through the mountain top experiences and even through the valleys. The Journey Wall Event is for everyone and we look forward to sharing this special time together with you. Refreshments will be provided. Childcare is available for kids 6th grade and under. Brian Wright, EFCA Northern Plains District Superintendent will be our special guest.
Listening Visits
Pastor Chris and Rhonda are setting up times to meet with those in our church family for “listening visits.” In addition to helping them get to know the New Life family, these visits will help Pastor Chris as he works with the Transition Team to find the man God has for us for our next Senior Pastor. If you would like to set up a time to meet, you can call the church office (886-1977) or send an email to Lezlie.
Join us for an evening of good food and fellowship! You’ll enjoy a flight of soups while you visit with old friends and new friends. Please sign up to bring a soup, salad, bread, or dessert to share. You can sign up at the Info Center in the foyer, call the church office (886.1977), or click the button below. Friends and neighbors are always welcome - bring someone along!

Youth Group | 6:30pm on Wednesdays
This year’s study: Genesis 1-11
In the beginning, God. Some of the most profound and powerful words that have ever been written. We are going to be taking a deep dive into the first 11 chapters of the Book of Genesis. We are going to encounter so many amazing truths that have an impact on us today in our world. Where did everything come from? Why are we here? Why is the world the way it is? Is there hope?
We end each youth evening with snacks for the students. It’s a fun time to hang out and get to know each other. Parents and others in our church family have been great about baking or purchasing snacks for us - if you’d like to sign up to bring the snack one evening, you can use the button below.
