We had a good attendance at our revival services and a great spiritual breakthrough. Thank you for making the effort to attend and reach out in faith and worship. We are thankful for 7 people receiving the Holy Spirit during our revival services last week! Several of these want to be baptized today.

If you have never received the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking with other tongues, God wants to give you this gift. If you have never been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (invoking His name during baptism), you need to do so. If you would like a Bible study covering these topics, please see Arick Lassister, our Bible study coordinator.

All-church prayer meetings are held each Friday night at the church from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Everyone is encouraged to attend one of these meetings each month. Additionally, the prayer rooms are open thirty minutes prior to each evening service.

The equipment in the media booths at the back of the sanctuary, including computers, are not for personal use. Please do not use the equipment unless you are authorized to do so. If you have questions, please see Johnny Celey.

Today we conclude our special services with Evangelist Doug Klinedinst. If you have never received the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking with other tongues, you can do so today! If you need a miracle of healing, deliverance, provision, or for some other circumstance in your life, present the need to God in faith today. Let’s believe God for a miracle!

As we conclude our month of devotion—including prayer, fasting, and Bible reading—let’s not lose our commitment to these disciplines. We need to make a habit of seeking God. When we consistently discipline our lives, we can expect the blessings of God upon our lives. Continue to pray for personal renewal, a harvest of new souls in our church, favorable bids and conditions for our building program, the sale of our building, and another million-dollar miracle. Everyone is encouraged to attend at least one Friday night prayer meeting per month. God will provide!

We are thankful for all who gave in 2009. Your giving supports our mission both at home and around the world. Contribution statements for 2009 have been mailed. Please review your statement for accuracy. If there is a discrepancy, please contact our treasurer, Regena Dumas, by calling the church office or by e-mailing her at rsdumas@newlifeupc.org. This is also a good time to reflect on stewardship and faithfulness.

As you know, Haiti was hit by a major earthquake. Haiti is one of the most destitute nations of the world, filled with poverty, government corruption, and organized crime. Such an environment makes the tragedy all the worse for the common person. The UCPI has 56,000 constituents, 764 ministers, and 586 churches and preaching points in Haiti. We need to remember them in our prayers. We will be sending an offering to Haiti through Compassion Services International, a UPCI-affiliated relief agency. If you would like to give to this cause, please designate your offering accordingly.

Please remember our commitment to prayer, fasting, and Bible reading. If you have not taken a weekly day of fasting for January, please consider doing so. Everyone is encouraged to take advantage of existing opportunities to pray including personal times, before Sunday night and Wednesday night services in the prayer rooms, Tuesday morning ladies prayer meeting, and Friday night all-church prayer. Everyone is encouraged to attend at least one Friday night prayer meeting per month. Pray for personal renewal, a harvest of new souls in our church, favorable bids and conditions for our building program, the sale of our building, and another million-dollar miracle. God will provide!

Children's Revival

newlife — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 22:05:28 +0000

Are YOU on an adventure? YOU can be!

Join us on February 21 at 6:30 pm for "Christian's Great Adventure," a special children's revival service led by our children's worship team, KidSpace Live.

"Christian's Great Adventure" is based on John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress.

Just because this service is geared for kids, it doesn't mean that it won't be a blessing to everyone else. We've found over the years that adults and teens are just as blessed as the kids–and dare we say, have as much fun . . . if they participate!

Special Services with Doug Klinedinst

newlife — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 21:26:29 +0000

We're looking forward to the special services we're going to have with Doug Klinedinst this month on the 27th, 29th, and 31st. We fully expect there to be a powerful move of God among us. We're believing that God is going to work miracles of healing and deliverance in our lives and that he is going to draw many new people to him, with many dedicating their lives to Jesus and being filled with the Spirit and baptized in Jesus' name.

If you're not a member of New Life, please join us. God will bless you!

The theme for January has been A Month of Devotion. One goal of this month has been to prepare ourselves for these special services. So continue to pray and to seek Him through the Word and fasting. We want to be ready for what God wants to do in our midst!

Service Schedule

Wednesday, 01/27 | 7:30 pm
Friday, 01/29 | 7:30 pm
