SUNDAY SCHOOL

(Discontinued for the summer)

Biblical education for all ages is available on Sunday mornings at 9:30. Take the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the person of Christ and the word of God in this small group setting while enjoying Godly fellowship with believers. Our nursery is available during our Sunday School hour.

CAFÉ 242

Immediately following our Sunday School time, join us as we greet one another over coffee and light breakfast. Catch up with friends and take the time to meet new faces before we head in to our Sunday morning worship service together. Café 242 is available at 10:15 on Sunday mornings until our worship service begins at 10:30.

Acts 2:42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread

SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP SERVICE

You are invited to exalt and worship Jesus, and experience the presence and power of the Holy Spirit with us on Sunday mornings! In this service, our prayer is that you would connect with people, hear the truth of God’s word preached, and open your heart to the transforming and powerful work of Jesus Christ. Our Sunday morning service starts at 10:30.

CHILDREN'S CHURCH

Children at New Life Center can enjoy a Sunday morning experience designed just for them. Led by our dedicated children’s workers, children’s church takes place after the worship portion of the main Sunday morning service and offers a fun, interactive opportunity for learning more about Christ. Children’s church is available for children who have started 2nd grade to 6th grade.

Rainbows is our offering for children age 4 until the start of 2nd grade. This ministry is offered before our Sunday morning worship service.

NURSERY

Children ages birth to 3 years old are cared for in our church nursery on Sunday mornings. Our experienced nursery workers are trained to offer a flexible, age-appropriate curriculum and provide a fun, caring environment where babies and toddlers can learn and play. Nursery care is available during our Bible Fellowship hour, and after the worship portion of the main Sunday morning service.

PRAYER SERVICE

Our Sunday evening service is a welcome time of fellowship and prayer before the beginning of our busy weeks. It is a time to share burdens with one another while experiencing the power of God through prayer. Prayer Meeting meets on Sunday nights from 6:00 to 7:30. The first half hour we meet throughout the building for a time of personal prayer. The second hour we meet in the Coffee House for a time of sharing needs and prayer for one another. Feel free to join us for all, or part of this time of prayer.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT MIDWEEK SERVICE

(Currently on hold. Please check back for updates!) Our midweek small group is a wonderful time for real spiritual conversations. These conversations both encourage us, and challenge us. We may even disagree at times, but these disagreements will challenge us and produce growth in the love and knowledge of Lord. This is a fluid small group; we may study through a book, a book in the Bible, enjoy a time of worship, or seek the Lord and a fresh touch of the Holy Spirit in prayer. This time is not bound to a rigid formula, but only to its core purpose; to have spiritual conversation together, and to inspire us to have a deeper conversation with our Lord.

NEW LIFE YOUTH

New Life Youth exists to create a safe place for middle and high school students to explore their faith, learn more about Jesus, and connect with other students! This midweek service includes games, prayer, testimonies, and a small group lesson. Join us every Wednesday night at 7 for this chill hangout!

Please feel free to contact our Associate/Youth Pastor Robert Trout if you have any questions.

SECOND SUNDAY POTLUCK

As a church body we place a high value on community and fellowship, many of those experiences are centered around food. In fact, if you look at the ministry of Jesus, many of His most memorable moments centered around food. So with that heart, we would like to invite you to join us every second Sunday of the month following the morning service for our regular potluck lunch. If you are unable to bring a dish please know you are welcome.

MEN'S MINISTRY

Join us in the Coffee House on the second Tuesday of the month at 6:00 as the men of New Life Center meet for a time of food, fellowship and Bible study! Also, check the calendar for our fun quarterly events.

(Discontinued for the Summer)

EMPOWER WOMEN'S MINISTRY

Join us in the Coffee House on the second Thursday of the month at 5:30 as the women of New Life Center meet for a time of food, fellowship and Bible study! Also, check the calendar for our fun quarterly events.

LOADS OF LOVE

Know someone who needs assistance with laundry? Please contact the church during our regular office hours, and we will pay for one free load of laundry.

Distribution hours are Wednesdays, from 10 to 12 & 2 to 4.

If you are personally interested in blessing others in this tangible way, we will provide $20 to $40 for you to pay or another person’s laundry. As you do so be in prayer that God would lead you in spiritual conversations, and chances to pray with people.

FOOD PANTRY

We love our community of Hays Kansas and the surrounding areas, and we as a church know what it is to endure struggles. If you are in need of food, or paper goods, please feel free to visit us during our regular office hours.

Distribution hours are Wednesdays, from 10 to 12 & 2 to 4.

If you would like to donate to this wonderful ministry that seeks to convey the love of Christ in tangible ways, please communicate with us to receive a list of items we may need.

OVERFLOW YOUNG ADULT MINISTRY

As a young adult/college student, whether you call Hays home or you’re here going to school and/or working, our Young Adult and College ministry will be a place where you can find a home away from home. This quarterly dinner at various locations around town is a chance to build relationships, and provides opportunities for ministry to others. Childcare is available during our dinners.

PRAYER ROOMS

Sometimes being at home and trying to pray can be distracting. We start to pray and the kids, the pet or the spouse needs something. When we’re seeking God in prayer the distractions seem to be endless, and we just need a quiet place away from those things to focus on Him. The purpose of this ministry is; to provide a quiet place for prayer, to give people the opportunity to be prayed for by our loving staff, and to provide an opportunity for believers to pray for the church as a whole. Prayer rooms will be open at New Life Center during our regular business hours: Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am to 5pm, Wednesdays from 9am to 8pm, Fridays and Saturdays the office is closed.

MISSIONS

We are thankful to be able to support missionaries serving in the United States and around the world. We pray for the needs of our missionaries, focusing on a different missionary family each month, and we enjoy when our missionaries are able to join us for a service. We also provide opportunities for our church body to be involved in missions trips. Missions is an integral part of our ministry at New Life Center and we desire to develop and foster, within our church body, a heart of missions for our own community.
