FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are your services like?

Our Sunday service is designed to glorify God and draw people into His presence. Our messages are Biblical. We talk about the real things you face every day and seek to connect God’s wisdom and Word to your life. 

Is childcare provided?

Our nursery is not staffed but available for parent-use for birth-3 year old children. We have Children’s Church available for ages 4 and up for our 10:30 am service. Contact the office at 413-568-1588 for more information. 

What should I do with my kids the first time I attend?

Your children are welcome to worship with you and sit under the Word of God during the service or have them attend Kids Church with the other NLCC children and be taught by our loving children’s leaders. Kids church drop off starts at 10:15 a.m.  

Whether you are seeking a new church home, or simply desiring to know more about who Jesus is, you should feel like you are among family.

What should I wear?

Come as you are. God is clear in His Word that He does not look on the outward appearance but rather into the heart of a person. The dress and atmosphere at New Life tends to be casual. Wear jeans. Wear a tie. It’s your decision. 

What kind of church is this?

New Life is an Assemblies of God church. If you want to learn more about our beliefs as a church, click here.

What do you believe about baptism and communion?

We encourage all followers of Jesus to experience baptism. Periodically, we offer a baptism class for people interested in being baptized during one of our services. We baptize by immersion because that was Jesus’ model of baptism. Baptism is not salvation. It is a symbol of the new life that Jesus brings about in the lives of His believers.

We believe communion is also a symbol. It symbolizes the body of Jesus that was sacrificed for us. We observe this ordinance every 2nd Sunday of the month.

Giving | Offering

A weekly offering/collection is taken during our Sunday morning service. These financial gifts enable this church to fulfill the mission and vision God has given it. We believe in scriptural tithing [giving 10% back to God] as an opportunity to outwardly express our gratitude to God and acknowledge our role as stewards of everything we’ve been given. However, we encourage all of our first-time visitors to give as they feel led. You are our guest.
