Greetings!
On August 12, 1990, ten people gathered at the home of Anne
Esslinger (Hyatt) to organize a United Methodist Church for the Grant/Honeycomb
area. And it is thanks to
the vision and hard work and commitment of those ten people and those who soon
followed that we can now gather together each Sunday to worship at New
Life! This Sunday, we will have a
chance to celebrate 20 years of ministry on the mountain! We will celebrate by worshipping
together, hearing messages from our previous two pastors, and enjoying a
wonderful time of fellowship as we eat and visit together following the
contemporary service. We are
asking you to bring two dishes -a main dish and a side dish or dessert. We hope to have lots of visitors so
bring enough for your family plus a few more!
Come join us as we celebrate our past and thank those who
have helped make this congregation a place where we can experience the love and
grace of Christ. And join us also
as we look forward to God's future for New Life.
See you on Sunday!
