Prayer Chain
It has happened so many times, things seem to be hopeless and then miraculously - prayers are answered and the impossible is made possible by the power of prayer. Do you have a few minutes each day to pray for special needs of the NEW LIFE members, friends, and family? If so, give the office a call (or email) to place your name on our list of prayer friends. Currently, we have three teams that are called when prayer needs arise. Please let the church office know of your request.

Beautiful Beyond All Telling
For this wondrous world you created, and are creating still, mountains and seas, lands and peoples beautiful beyond all telling of it, we thank you, O God of us all.
For your common humanity you created us to be, one family joined in the mystery of you, yet babbled into many branches to challenge and enrich us all, and deliver any from arrogant over-reach, we thank you, O God of mercy and wisdom.
For the laughter and wonder and wisdom, the longing and caring and trusting that link us at our core, and shape our shared future, beautiful beyond all telling of it, O Father of us all.
For the insistent call to hallow our lives by loving our neighbors, and you above all, we would thank you with our lives as well as our lips, for only so you will we become doers of your will, fulfillers of your dream, members of your human family and beautiful beyond all telling of it, O Judge and Lover of us all.
For your promise to be with us always, to disturb our consciences, ignite our curiosity, gladden our hearts, compose our wills, deepen our relationships, rouse your image in us, we thank you for shaping our lives to become beautiful beyond all telling of it, O God of faithfulness and ingenuity.
For your claiming our lives to serve your kingdom of justice and peace and to share its joy in redeeming the soul of our time, as we join to help your human family become beautiful beyond all telling of it, we thank you, O God of power and glory; through Jesus Christ, our brother and Lord.
-Ted Loder, "My Heart in my Mouth"
