If you have been living your life with the shadow of worry and doubt hovering around you, maybe it’s time to be more intentional about resting in the Lord. Rest is not an option; it’s a vital necessity. The Practice of Rest will help you develop techniques for entering into rest and show you how peace can be the most useful weapon against the enemy. When you develop the confidence that comes with a peaceful partnership with Jesus, your life will be full of brilliant opportunities to bring the Kingdom down to Earth.

Prayer is always our first response. We’re comforted and empowered knowing we serve a miracle-working God who is an ever-present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1). Ask the Holy Spirit to open your eyes and to show you how to pray for those on the front lines, at high risk, and in great need. We are putting a prayer focus on the website every Monday, which can be prayed daily (morning and evening), as we pray in unity with churches around the world.

He showed up for you. You. Jesus exchanged death for life, chains for freedom, darkness for light. He willingly went up on the cross and then walked out of his tomb three days later. Easter services at New Life are more than a tradition. It’s a time for us to come together to celebrate all God has done to give us new life, hope, and a future. We’d love for you to bring your family, friends, and neighbours and join us for our special Easter services on Friday 10 April at 9am only and on Sunday 12 April at 9am only for a time of reflection, worship, communion and a special message by our senior pastor Chris Stark. KidsLife will run parallel to the Friday and Sunday service. See you there!

Being rooted and grounded in a church is a very important part of being a Christian, so if you are new to New Life Church, or you are feeling that this church family is for you, this class is vital for new membership. If you have been a Christian for a long time and have attended New Life for some time, but you are not yet a member, you are also welcome to join the class as the vision and values of New Life Church are presented in a life giving and informative way. Light snacks will be served and KidsLife is open for childcare.
