| About
Us
How We Began
New Beginnings Church was formed in February
2003.
Who We Are
Our church is an inclusive
community of faith whose members come from all walks of life and
alternative lifestyles, drawn together to experience the love of God
that we may in turn allow ourselves to become conduits of that same
love, returning it manifold to the communities in which we live.
What We Preach
and Do Not Preach
Our church preaches the love of God - which is the single most powerful
force in the universe. Hatred, bigotry and intolerance are incompatible
with the founding principles of our church and the Mission Statement
that leads us in our journey of faith.
Our Sunday
Services
Members of our congregation,
church leaders from neighboring churches or other community members
prepare and give a devotional each Sunday. Our worship services are a
celebration of God's love for us and we use a blend of traditional hymns
and contemporary praise songs, interspersed with member-led prayer. We
offer time during the services for prayer requests of members and
reports of praise for the mighty things that God is doing in our lives.
Our Church
Structure
Our church community has chosen to form its structure around 5 areas of
responsibilities that we have identified. Members were elected at large
to form our church council. Church council meetings are scheduled
monthly on the third Sunday, unless otherwise published in the weekly
bulletin. All members are encouraged to attend.

Church Finances
We do not pass the
collection plate at New Beginnings Church; however, all offerings are
welcomed and very much appreciated. Monetary giving is determined by
each individual member in the privacy and quiet of their heart ― giving
is a personal decision between our members and their God. Our financial
books are available and open for any member's inspection. Finance
meetings are held quarterly, the first Sundays of January, April, July
and October, unless otherwise published in the weekly bulletin. All
members are encouraged to attend.
Membership
The requirement for membership in New Beginnings Church is quite simple:
If you can embrace our Mission Statement, we welcome you to become a
member.
