ADVENT-ures

Join us as we celebrate the season of Advent with ADVENT-ures, our church tradition of sharing the light, hope, and peace of Jesus with the world around us! This season offers many opportunities to draw near to one another, just as Jesus drew near to us, and to share His love in meaningful ways. Our ADVENT-ures this year include: donations of undergarments, socks, and coats for those in need, The Christmas Missions Market, and connection and outreach opportunities within our church and community. Together, let’s let the love of Christ shine brightly in us and through us this Advent

Baptism Class

Baptism is an important part of each person’s faith story. It is an outward sign—a step of obedience—taken by a disciple of Jesus Christ. If you are interested in receiving the sacrament of baptism here at New Life Fellowship, taking our baptism class is the first step. This class is suitable for middle and high school students as well as adults.

Emotionally Healthy Relationships Course

Emotional health and spiritual maturity are inseparable. Emotionally Healthy Relationships (EHR) is an 8-week course that provides practical tools to help you love others well and grow as a mature follower of Jesus. As Part 2 of the Emotionally Healthy Discipleship Course, it builds on Part 1—Emotionally Healthy Spirituality—which focuses on loving God and yourself. We encourage you to take both courses for a fuller discipleship experience. Taking EHR with someone you know can enrich your practice of the skills. This course is open to adults 18 and older.

Continuing The Conversations

Do you ever find it hard to take conversations to the “next level”? Is it challenging to move from casual topics to meaningful spiritual conversations with friends, family, or neighbors? If so, you’re not alone. Join us for “Continuing the Conversation”, a workshop designed to help turn common barriers into bridges toward deeper relationships and more natural faith conversations. This workshop is part of our PIC3 initiative, which invites us to pray for, invite, and connect with friends who may not yet know Christ’s love or who feel distant from the church.
