Sign Up - Adult Singles Life Group
The Adult Singles Life Group has been in existence since the beginning of New Life's organized Life Groups ministry. Our group targets single adults 40-plus in age, whether never married, divorced, separated, or widowed, even though anyone of any age is welcome. We are not a Christian dating service, even though the Lord in the past has used New Life Singles to bring people together. We are not a "moan and groan" group, even though tears have shed during times of sharing. Many singles have experienced difficulties being a single adult in a married world, even in the church! 50.2% of Americans are single! The goal of the Adult Single Life Group is support & encourage one another, while becoming what God has created us to be!

Sign Up - Everyone Welcome! Life Group Tues.
Everyone Welcome life group leaders are Brian and Tracy Serafin. The group currently consists of 4 couples and 2 singles and is an eclectic group. We have done studies on our own and have followed the life group courses available. Our goal is fellowship and a deeper understanding of our journey with Christ. We have a ton of fun and strive to support each other and are always amazed by each person's personal spiritual journey. Come join us and dig deeper into your own relationship with Jesus.

Do you have a loved one who struggles with alcoholism? Do you know what it's like to live through the daily ups and downs, the broken promises, the broken relationships and broken hearts that alcoholism causes?

This group is a safe space where we can talk and encourage each other.

There. Is. Hope. Always.

FULL GROUP AS OF 9/8/19

This group is for any woman who feel they're never ______ enough. We try every new diet, new relationship, new hairstyle, new clothing style, etc and still never attain the belief that we are ________ enough. This is because we are always looking elsewhere for our idea of completion and not to the source! In this group, we will laugh, cry, and encourage one another to learn how to finally believe that we are enough because Jesus is enough!

FULL GROUP AS OF 9/4/19>
CHILDCARE PROVIDED
My philosophy is as women we should lift each other up, cheer each other on and build a network of support. Often times we get so focused on work and home life that we fail to foster friendships. This group will give us a chance to connect with other working women to grow in our faith, support each other and meet some amazing new people. Yes, joining a Life Group can be scary but it can also be exactly what you are missing!! See you soon 🙂
