Kids

Joining families in discipling kids to know God and discover how they can be a part of His big story. 

New Life Church Kids Ministry believes that the Holy Spirit is God’s primary teacher in understanding who God is and how to live the Christian life. We provide an environment for children to be discipled as they actively engage in God’s redemptive story.

Each week, kids have the opportunity to discover and experience God’s presence through creative, God-centered storytelling as well as participate in various forms of worship response. We take time to practice hearing God’s voice, prayer, and blessing. We seek to inspire families and their kids to follow Jesus and know the transforming power of the Holy Spirit for a lifetime faith.

Homefront Magazine

HomeFront inspires and equips parents to lead their families in faith. Each issue offers creative ideas for weaving spiritually formative moments into everyday life, practical tools for sharing God’s truth at home, and encouragement to engage communities and influence culture for Christ.

Disability & Specialized Needs

We create safe and inclusive spaces that encourage belonging, community, and worship. We have classrooms at the 11:00 am service for children and teens with special needs and disabilities.

We acknowledge that individuals need support to access and participate. We provide volunteer buddies on a case-by-case basis to walk alongside individuals throughout our church.

NewLifeKids Worship

New Life Kids Worship Vol 1” is the first EP released from New Life Kids Worship. New Life Kids Worship is an expression of New Life Worship in their mission to teach the youngest of hearts the beauty of worshipping in spirit and in truth by encountering the presence of God and growing in formation through His Word. Singing songs of the house written by Jon Egan and New Life Worship, the New Life Kids Choir leads these familiar melodies with passion and purity. The EP is an invitation to reflect on the promises of God and His goodness towards His children, now and forevermore.
