Communion in your Life Group!

Christ calls us to take communion “In remembrance” of Him (Luke 22:19). We serve communion from time to time in our weekend services and large group settings, but the primary place communion happens is in our life groups. Communion takes place in the groups monthly, usually on the fourth week of the month. So if you’re not plugged in to a life group, get involved. You can find out more about groups by checking out the life group webpage.

Who's Your ONE?


At New Life, we ask members the question, "Who's Your One?" This question flows from the Biblical truth that each person matters to God. Our hope is that each member of New Life would have one person they are praying for and reaching out to with the love of Christ. Take time this week to identify and pray for your "One". For more information, visit our ONE webpage here.

December Giving Update!

How did we do in the month of December?

We were $10,933.90 above of our monthly budget.

How much does it “cost” to run the church?

In a 4 Sunday month it takes a minimum of $30,521. It allows us to pay the bills and fund a minimal amount to our ministries.

How much was the actual giving for the month?

The giving for December was $41,454.90.

How will this help our recent budget shortfalls?

All giving that comes in above our monthly budget is used to cover months when the giving does not meet our budget. December's giving will help greatly in our recent shortages and as we move forward in 2012.

Is there anything else I need to know?
If you’re someone who regularly gives to God at New Life: Thanks! Your giving makes a difference.

If you’re someone who is not yet giving: Make a decision to get involved. Take the first step toward the biblical practice of giving. You can find out more about giving here.

And for everyone: Please take time this week to pray for the finances of both our church family, and the individual families that make up New Life.
