Gift to the King

The holidays are a time for tradition.  One of the traditions at New Life is the annual “Gift to the King” Christmas offering.  God has given us so much; this is an opportunity to give back to Him. 

Gift to the King is a time to make a special gift “over and above” your regular giving, toward Christ’s work at our church.  Your gift will go directly to strengthen our outreach, our weekend services, our children’s ministry, our youth program and the other important ministries at New Life. 

You can make your gift online, or use a Gift to the King envelope during the Weekend Service.

Helping Those in Need

Would you like to help someone in need?

The Bible says, “He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done” Proverbs 19:17. The holidays are a great time to reach out to those in need. There are members of our community, and even in our own church family who can use a helping hand over Christmas. Here are a few ways that you can get involved:
1) Buy a gift card to a local supermarket and drop it off at the church office, we'll then pass it along to someone in need.
2) Make a special financial gift to the church and designate it for "members in need," we'll direct 100% of the gift to a member who could use a helping hand. 

If you would like to find out more practical ways to help, send us an email at info@newlifecommunitychurch.net

Automate your giving

What if I try online giving and don’t like it? 
There is no requirement to continue to use online giving.  It is very easy to begin or stop.

What if I need to change the amount of a recurring gift, or cancel altogether? 
You can view, edit, or delete a scheduled contribution at anytime, including the credit card, date, frequency and amount as long as you created an account on the giving page. 

Are there any fees involved with giving online? 
Not for the giver.  The church pays any fees associated with online giving.

Is there anything else to know with recurring giving? 
When you schedule a recurring donation, a small validation amount (.11 cents) will pend on your account BUT WILL NOT be charged or post to your account.  It is only for validation purposes.  Please allow 2-3 days for this to disappear. 
To learn more, check out –http://www.newlifecommunitychurch.net/Giving/Online

3 Ways to Give


For more information on giving, check out our giving webpage.

Are You Reading Your Bible?

Are you reading through the book of Habakkuk? You are if you're following our Bible Reading Challenge. The Bible is the inspired word of God that helps us to know God and follow Him. Many of us own a Bible, but don’t have a regular plan for reading it. To help bring focus, we’ve put together a Bible reading plan that brings you through a chapter of the Bible each day. If you follow this day-by-day checklist, you’ll be taking the next step toward knowing more of God’s Word. 

Check out our website to download our Bible Reading Challenge checklist.
