Blessing Box Ministry
In 2019 New Life set out to provide for the New Tripoli communities thus the blessing box was built. This no strings service opportunity serves many local families with essential food and household items without the burden of applications and appointments. The blessing box is open 24hours and open to all in need. If you wish to support this ministry with items or funds contact the church office.
Cheerful Giving
If you feel called to support New Life or any of its programs, you’re encouraged to pray about it, listen to how God is directing you, and give as a matter of faith. Giving is not complicated; it’s about what’s in your heart.
Each of us must decide in our hearts how much to give. Don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure, for "God loves a person who gives cheerfully"
(2 Corinthians 9:7).
Online giving is secure and easy. Your generosity is appreciated, and your gifts will be used to further the mission of New Life Church.
about our partner
In 2023 New Life set out to partner with another church to provide its members with in depth messages that went beyond a Sunday morning. We teamed up with Hope and were met with an abundance of resources to grow as a church and as individuals. Lutheran Church of Hope is a multi-site church based in West Des Moines, Iowa, with six campuses, a thriving online community, as well as several Hope Local Sites throughout the Midwest. for more information on how you can connect with Hope click here
