ANNOUNCEMENTS:

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: This Sunday, November 21st, there will be one service only at 10:30am.
This will be a very special morning as leadership from NMC join us to celebrate God’s answers to prayer in establishing New Life Fellowship Church and our opportunity to be debt free!. An all-church meal will follow the service (you do not need to bring anything; all food will be provided).
Children (ages infant-3rd grade) and Preteens (4th-6th grade) will be in their classrooms for the entire service. Please help your child sign in at the computers in the children’s hallway prior to the service and then drop them off in their age appropriate class.
The service will be live streamed on FaceBook and on the church website nlf-online.church during the 10:30 am service. It will be accessible on both Face Book and the New Life website if you prefer to watch the service at a later time.
