Jesus modeled a life of service.

As disciples, we are called to follow his example by serving others—both within the church and in the world around us. Serving not only meets real needs, but it also helps us grow in compassion, generosity, and faith. When we serve, we become the hands and feet of Christ, sharing God’s love in practical and powerful ways.

Serving in the local church

At New Creation, there are many ways to serve and make a difference:

  • Connection teams that welcome people with warmth and kindness
  • Worship teams, including music, media, and ushers
  • Children’s and youth ministries that nurture the next generation
  • Mission projects that reach beyond our walls into the community and the world
  • Care ministries that walk alongside people in times of need

Serving Beyond the Church

Service doesn’t stop at our doors. We partner with local and global ministries to meet needs, bring hope, and work for justice. From food drives and school supply collections, to mission trips and partnerships with groups like Helping Children Worldwide and UMCOR, we believe serving others is one of the most powerful ways to live out our faith.
