Pastoral Care
Supporting Your Family through Life’s Big Moments
Our Pastoral Care team exists to walk alongside you and your loved ones during your decision to get married or baptized. They also provide compassionate care to your family through the death of a loved one. We place high value on the ministry of prayer during these and other life events.
PREMARITAL/MARRIAGE MINISTRY
We are committed as a church to coming alongside those who seek to unify themselves in a biblical marriage. Our church assists, help prepare and celebrates couples at their weddings. A Christian marriage is a total commitment of one man and one woman to God and to one another.
MEMORIALS
We want to care for you through the loss of a loved one and to help with preparations for a funeral or memorial service. For more information about who to call, proper paperwork and how to start the process, email Ellen Paugh at epaugh@newlifechurch.org.
BAPTISMS
We believe water baptism is the outward public declaration of an individual who has decided to follow Jesus Christ with his or her entire life. This declaration is demonstrated as one forfeits his or her allegiance to the “old life” of sin and enters into a “new life” that comes by faith and forgiveness in Jesus Christ. Email Ellen Paugh at epaugh@newlifechurgh.org for more information.
PRAYER TEAM
Our Prayer Team serves to provide prayer support and ministry at the conclusion of our worship services, during hospital or home visits, or as needed for other ministry occasions.
