On Mission


Our purpose as a church is to...



“Reach people for Christ and get them grounded, growing and on mission.”


Someone who is on mission for Christ…



Makes a commitment to the body of Christ
:


Scripture says that we’re all members of one body - the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12). Someone who is "On Mission" for Christ recognizes the importance of the body of Christ and makes a commitment to play their part as members of Christ’s church.



Makes a contribution to the cause of Christ:


The Bible says that Christ’s ministry is done as each person plays their part (Ephesians 4:16). Someone who is "On Mission" for Christ eagerly seeks to make a contribution to the cause of Christ (1 Peter 4:10).



Pursues their unique role in the mission of Christ:


God has given us each a unique life purpose in the mission of Christ. Each person is created on purpose and for a purpose. As Ephesians 2:10 says, “We are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Someone who is "On Mission" wants to discover and do those “good works” which God has prepared in advance. An “On Mission” follower of Jesus desires to understand and increasingly prioritize their life around their God-given role in the cause of Christ.

Children's Offering


Each weekend, children have an opportunity to give an offering in our Kidzlife classes. This is an opportunity for kids to learn giving to God at an early age. We invited parents to use this as an opportunity to share this important value with their kids. If you have any questions, please contact our children's staff at kidzlife@newlifecommunitychurch.net

Easter Carnival



Hey New Lifer's, on Easter Sunday one of our Kidzlife classes is having an Easter Carnival as part of the Easter service. To make this a fun time for the kids, we are looking for some help. Specifically, we need donations of individually wrapped candy, small prizes to hand out at each game, and 30-ish juice boxes. If you can help, bring your donations and drop them off at the K-4th grade class on Sunday morning. Or contact the church office at info@newlifecommunitychurch.net
