New Life Ministries

There is an old nursery rhyme that I learned in school. While interlocking your fingers downward and your two pointers sticking up and touching finger tips, you would then say. "Here is the church, here’s the steeple, open the door (while fingers still locked spreading your thumbs and turning your fingers up) and here is the people"!  While it still has a level of charm for me today, I would like you to consider changing our way of looking at church. So, let’s try the same hand gestures while saying “Here is the building, here is the steeple, open the door, here’s the church!” Okay it fails to pass the rhyme test, but the point I am making is, the church is not brick and mortar it is a global orgamism, the church is the people of God! The people of God make up the Kingdom of God.

Jesus said “Therefore, go and preach the good news to all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you” Note the words go and make disciples. Now some, are not in the position to just pick up and GO into the mission field. But right now, especially in these times where churches all around are struggling with attendance and the resources to “make  disciples” for Jesus, WE, THIS CHURCH CAN GO and come along other churches to increase the Kingdom by MAKING DISCIPLES and then teaching them to live as Jesus followers! After all we are ONE Church of Jesus!

So that is what we are doing, joining hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder with other churches to increase the Kingdom of God! Join us in any of 3 locations listed in the Ministries tab and come help make His Kingdom grow while growing in YOUR faith to become more like HIM   ><>

In His Grace,
