Mexico Outreach

Our church supports an orphanage in Ensenada, Mexico called Estado 29. Towards the beginning of each month, a team of volunteers goes on a one-day trip to Ensenada to help share God's love. Our next trip will be on February 1st.

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.

Getting More Out of 1 Corinthians

We're beginning a series though the book of 1 Corinthians on Sunday mornings. The following are some ideas for getting more out of this book of the Bible…
1) Read a chapter of First Corinthians prior to the weekend service. Get a head start by reading a chapter in the book of 1 Peter. That way when you show up on Sunday, you'll be familiar with the passage we'll be discussing.
2) Join a Life Group to discuss the book of 1 Corinthians. Each week our Life Groups meet and look at the passage from the previous Sunday. This is a great opportunity to ask questions and learn more.
3) Take advantage of online Bible study tools. One good website is http://www.biblestudytools.com.

Year End Giving

The statements will be sent out by the end of January 2014. For more information, contact the church office or email us at finance@newlifecommunitychurch.net

Life Group Questions for Personal Growth

Each week, we provide an outline during the weekend service. On one side, we provide the Bible passage to look at during the service. On the other side, there are discussion questions that connect to that same weekly passage. These questions are designed to interact and apply the passage. 

These questions are used by our Life Groups that meet throughout the week. But these same questions can be used as a personal study tool. If you are not yet part of a group, you can use these questions during your personal Bible study time. They can provide an opportunity to dig deeper and reinforce the passage from the previous weekend’s service. Also, if you miss a service, both the message and the questions can be downloaded online.

Communion in Life Groups

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 third 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.
