Jesus is doing powerful things in our city; New Life Fellowship is committed to following His lead!

Deuteronomy 6:10-12 (MSG)

God has made it our business to offer people his easy step-by-step plan to experiencing Him

At New Life, we not only need God’s process but we must have God’s presence and power first.

1 Corinthians 2:1-5 (NLT)

Each of us are designed to:

1. RECEIVE THE PROMISE – Experiencing God is beginning true fulfillment and identity.
2. EXPERIENCE FREEDOM – Through small groups; it’s where you take the Mask off. Building up and serving others is where experience true freedom James 5:16 
3. CHANGE OUR WORLD – You’re not here to just pay bills; go to work tomorrow and hope the kids behave. 

We exist to celebrate life change and Jesus being Lord in our lives.

Acts 2:41 (NIV)

When we chose to celebrate Him by being identified with Him in water baptism, He’ll celebrate us with giving us His Promise.

3 reasons that you want to be baptized today if you haven’t already celebrated Him as He asked us to:

1. Baptism follows the example set by Jesus’ Matthew 28:19 (NIV), 1 John 2:4 (TLB), Mark 16:15-16 (TLB)
2. Baptism demonstrates what happened; 1 Peter 3:21 (TLB)
3. Baptism declares my commitment publicly; Matthew 10:32-33 (NIV)
