And regardless of the growth it's already experienced, New Life continues to attract more visitors. In the last four months, attendance has risen to 75 and even reached 90 once. Currently, New Life is sponsored solely by the Southern Hills Church of Christ. One of the church's goals is to renovate the rear portion of Central Abilene Ministries, Highland's food pantry ministry, to have it's own building. A number of college students are already involved with New Life, worshipping there and volunteering in its different ministries.
More volunteers are welcome.
Within the next three weeks, elementary school, middle school and high school Bible classes will begin, and van captains, classroom helpers and teachers are needed. Also, people willing to pick up kids in their own cars are needed. Those interested in volunteering can call the New Life church office at 695-2434.
