New Community began in August of 1991 with about 20 people and in 2015 has close to 1,200 people in the congregation. We embrace all Bible-based, Christ-centered church traditions and do not require a certain unique doctrinal statement or church ritual/practice to be a member of the church. Membership is defined by faith in Jesus Christ, devotion to the Bible and participation in the congregation. We are independent, non-denominational congregation is rooted in Reformation teachings with the Heidelberg Catechism and Belgic Confession as our source of doctrine. We believe God is real and is a knowing and caring person. The Bible clearly and perfectly shows God and His love to us. The Bible teaches that God is known in three ways: The Father – that part of God who creates and rules; Jesus – the one who forms the bridge between the Father and us; The Spirit – the invisible part of God who lives in us and among us. Because we violate God and our neighbor, we need Jesus. Through Him, God the Father forgives us and gives us new hope and a new life. Our goal in life is to enjoy God, to love God, and to enjoy and love each other.
