NLCC Opportunities to Extend God's Love locally and worldwide
EGL Ministry oversees NLCC's community outreach programs. Located on the border of Wildwood and The Villages, New Life has a unique opportunity to Extend God's Love. Areas of focus include:
- Impact Days - once or twice a year we enlist the congregation's help in painting, cleaning and maintaining area facilities. Past efforts have focused on Wildwood Elementary School and the Sumter County Youth Center.
- Sumter County Youth Center - NLCC volunteers help with music, crafts, outdoor activities, computer repairs and more.
- Food Packs - connect with Kids Against Hunger once a year to pack meals for local and foreign missions.
First Sunday Food Drive
On the first Sunday of each month, non-perishable food and other items are brought to the wooden bin in the church foyer to provide for people in need through the Caring Hands Food Pantry, a ministry of the First Baptist Church of Wildwood.

Gas Can Ministry supports Love, INC through our pocket change that we put into the little red gas can sitting on our counter in the foyer as we leave church each week. Love, INC uses these gifts to provide gasoline for people who need to get to a doctor's appointment or a job interview. Our little red gas can is one of many distributed to supporting churches. Together we make a significant contribution to this valuable ministry.
Card and Prayer Ministry meets Wednesday mornings at 9 a.m. to pray for those in need and to send greeting cards to cheer those who are hurting. You are welcome to join the group. Call Richard Dowd for more information.
Prayer Shawl Ministry meets monthly in the Fellowship Center. It has two parts: creating the shawls, then delivering them and praying with those who are on our prayer lists. Those involved may choose to work in one part or in both. The ministry works closely with the Card and Prayer ministry. If you like to knit or crochet, or would like to learn, this ministry is for you. Contact Lee Davis or Connie Malott for details.
