A place to belong. 
A community to grow with.

Whether you’ve been in church for years or you’re just starting to explore faith, you are welcome here.

Plan your visit

At NC3, you’ll find a warm, friendly community passionate about following Jesus. We keep things casual and practical—expect engaging worship and Bible-based teaching that actually connects to your everyday life.

Our goal is simple: that every service draws you closer to God and gives you something meaningful to carry into your week. Come see what God is doing in our community.

Our Vision

"To KNOW Jesus and to make Jesus KNOWN."

Life Group

At New Covenant we embrace Acts 2:42 when “we gather together for teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayer”.

SO, join us for Life Groups each week to find a place to connect and grow in your faith in God and each other. Each week we have Life Groups for  children, youth, and adults.

Some of our groups are specifically for certain age groups, and others are open to all adults. We recommend that adults check out different adult Life Groups and find the one that fits you best.

We currently have Life Groups that meet on  Sunday morning at 9:15 (just show up and we will help you find one of our Life Groups), and  one that meets on Thursdays at 6pm (contact the church office for details).

Come get involved!

Missions

Matthew 28:19 “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”.

This verse is the foundation for New Covenant’s commitment to missions. We want to actively be a part of going into all the world and helping others know Christ and making Christ known. We do this in a number of different ways.

  1. We are involved in supporting financially a number of ministries and organizations working to help others know Christ and making Christ known
  2. We go and serve. This happens through individuals and groups going out serving for a day, week,or longer to where God leads us through short-term mission projects.
  3. We join with other organizations and walk alongside them to do ministry.

Our Beliefs

Loving God. Loving People. Keeping it simple.

We focus on the essentials:

  • Unity in the core beliefs of the Christian faith
  • Liberty and diversity in non-essential areas.
  • Love in all things.
