About our Worship Style:
Our worship gatherings are about 90 minutes in length of which the
middle 30 minutes consists of teaching. Worship is informal and you are
invited to participate in the manner you feel most comfortable. The
sermon is followed by a corporate response time. Communion is
celebrated during the response time on the second Sunday of the month.
Children are welcome to worship with us. Care is also available for
infants and toddlers in the lower level nursery. Children, teens and
their teachers are dismissed for Sunday School at about 10:20. Classes
are available for ages three to twelve in the lower level classrooms
and Youth Building (behind the church building) during the service.
More about the “Response Time”
Response Time has been a unique and cherished part of our liturgy since
New Life began to worship together in 1975. During Response Time we set
aside planned worship and open our hearts to hear and respond to what
the Spirit may want to say through the Body of Christ. In the spirit of
I Corinthians 14:26 where Paul says, “When you come together,
everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue
or an interpretation,” we value participatory worship. This
unstructured time may include prophecy, prayer, silence, testimonies of
encouragement, responses to the proclaimed Word, the reading of
Scripture, public confession, corporate repentance, or any other
creative way in which the Spirit of Jesus would speak to His flock that
conforms to the last part of I Corinthians 14:26 where Paul concludes,
“All these must be done for the strengthening of the
church.”
