How Can I Connect?
Serving in an area of ministry that you enjoy is a great way to get involved and make a connection here at New Life. Do you feel God nudging you to join the team? Or maybe you are interested in just participating in a ministry rather than leading it. Either way, feel free to talk to any of the ministry leaders to find out more about opportunities to serve!
Jesus told us, his disciples, to make disciples of all nations. One of the most important values of this church is our outreach to others around us. It begins in our own community, and spreads overseas to every nation. At New Life, volunteers are involved in a variety of ministries. See below for some of the ways you can connect and share your gifts and talents with others.
Small Groups
Plugged In Events
Afternoon JAM is a collaborative ministry of New Life. Our leaders work with leaders from other Christian churches in the area, to serve all elementary aged children in the Royal City community. This is a chance for elementary aged kids to come learn Biblical principles in a fun, hands-on way. There are songs, crafts, skits, games, teaching times and more. For more information, contact Brea Diaz, or Robyn Valdez.

Worship/Music
The Worship Ministry leads the congregation into worship through music/ singing. The ministry is tasked with selecting songs that invite participation and help the congregation lift its voice to God in praise and thanksgiving during Sunday worship. The ministry prays for direction, chooses appropriate songs to complement the overall worship theme. The team practices on a weekly basis to provide a professional level of worship. The ministry teaches the congregation new songs as appropriate and carefully assesses and nurtures the congregation’s voice as well as the body of songs that are dearest to the congregation. If you have musical talents and would like to be involved in the music ministry, contact Robyn Valdez or Stacie Cochran.
Women’s Ministry
The Women’s Ministry strives to help women of all ages and stages of life connect with each other gain strength and encouragement from being with each other. Throughout the year there are Bible studies during the day as well as in the evening to accommodate as many women as possible. Find out how you can connect. For more information, contact Christina Greer or Wanda Dorsing.
Care Team
The Care Team is great for people who just love to serve. The Care Team provide meals, emotional support, and caring ministries to families in our community who are receiving medical care and in other instances where “life” just happens and a little help is needed. Please see Camille Woodward for more information on how you can participate. Volunteers are always appreciated.
Hospitality/ Greeters Ministry
The Hospitality/Greeters Ministry helps make people feel welcome and comfortable. There are greeters and people who will help you get connected. This ministry also provides food and coffee before Sunday Morning Worship and at other special events throughout the year. This ministry welcomes guests to New Life. If you love to visit and say hi to people or if you enjoy baking, this is a great way to be involved. There are always opportunities for more volunteers.
