Children
Discovery World is the children’s ministry of New Life Community Church.
This ministry is all about children discovering Who God is and how much He cares!
Each week we support parents in their desire to develop their children’s spiritual lives by providing a dynamic learning experience. Gifted teachers, who accommodate the various learning styles of children, provide guidance in the discovery of the life-changing truths of the Bible. Throughout the week young adults, teens and parents build relationships in their home groups, and on Sundays they work as teams to teach the Bible in relevant and creative ways.
Infants and toddlers meet together on the lower classroom level. They learn that Jesus loves them and start building lasting friendships. They enjoy hearing Bible stories and a variety of visualizations that help foster a foundation of understanding God’s Word, as well as singing, learning and having fun together.
Preschoolers also meet on the lower level in a room with plenty of space for hands-on-learning activities. The Bible stories become more real to them as they craft projects, practice what they have seen and heard and sing their praises to Jesus.
Kindergarten through 1st Graders meet in the dance studio on the 2nd floor. They grow in their understanding of why God had to send Jesus to bring us salvation and how to apply the Bible to their every day experience.
2nd through 5th Graders meet separately in the dance studio on the 2nd floor, as well. Each week they learn how to encourage one another in the love of Christ by searching the Scriptures together and sharing their discoveries in small groups.
On the 4th Sunday of each month families worship together during the praise and music portion of our main worship service before the children are dismissed for their regularly scheduled classes.
There is a Mother’s nursing area available upon request in the nursery downstairs where the worship service is also broadcast or available via personal headset. Headsets are available at the sound table at the rear of the main auditorium.
