If you haven't seen the "Music Ministry" page, there you will find videos of the specials we have in church each Sunday. Mike also has a special introductory greeting for everyone, plus his periodic "music notes" news letter. There's a list of songs for Sunday and a music player with a compilation of piano music played during Communion. There's about an hour of spiritual, uplifting easy listening piano music to enjoy.
If you are considering joining the New Life music ministry, contact me. Our Choir sings twice a month with special seasonal presentations. Practices are every Wednesdays from 6-7 p.m.
Praise Team members are scheduled for worship music one Sunday a month, rehearsing the prior Thursday at 4 p.m.
The Praise Band members are instrumentalists who play every Sunday to accompany the Praise Team and they rehearse every Thursdays at 4:30 p.m.
If you would like to be part of the music ministry please feel free to call me at 407-683-0137. I would love to speak with you.
Blessing, Mike Thomas

Ushers Ministry - HELP NEEDED!
New Life is making plans for our future. As our attendance continues to grow numerically and we have noticed when some late comers enter it is harder for them to find a seat. Therefore, we are organizing an Usher's ministry.
If you have a heart for serving in this type of ministry please sign up for the 9 am or the 10:30 am service at the Activity Counter or contact me at gary@nlchristian.org or call church office 352.261.5333

Greeters/Bulletin Team
Greet guests and members with a smile to make everyone feel welcome; distribute bulletins as needed. This is a fun ministry that doesn't take any extra time since you are already here. Give it a try. You'll meet other people you might not otherwise get a chance to meet.

A grief support ministry, Led by Norma Bryant
If you have lost a loved one or spouse, learning to adjust to your new reality takes time. Learning how to do that is an important tool to help you to start moving forward.
Living With Loss is a support group for those who have experienced a major loss. This is an open group, and new members are welcome. We now meeting regular again on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month at 10:30 am in the Fellowship Hall.
Whether you are dealing with the loss of a loved one, loss of health, or loss of a loved one's health, you are welcome to attend. Each meeting lasts an hour during which information is shared about the grieving process. There is always opportunity for participants to share their feelings and experiences. But those who wish to just listen are encouraged to do so as well!
Our conversations are grounded in the love of God through Christ Jesus. For more information, please call Norma Bryant at 330-619-0826.
