Upcoming Events
Here’s what’s happening in the New City Community!
DuPage Pads Meal Distribution
Each month, we have the opportunity to love God and serve those made in His image at DuPage Pads Interim Housing Center!
The Interim Housing Center offers homeless families and individuals meals, overnight shelter, and support 365 days a year.
Volunteers (age 15 and up) will be providing, preparing, and serving dinner for residents from 4:00pm-6:30 pm. Dinner service officially opens for residents at 4:45pm and is the only daily meal provided by DuPage Pads, so it’s important to get there on time and bless the residents with as great of a meal as we can.
REGISTER HERE!
This is a chance to put our faith into action by serving our community, and we’d love for you to be part of it!
Due to the size of the kitchen, space permits only 12 volunteers per meal.
New City Baptisms
Baptism is an important step of obedience that shows others we have personally trusted Jesus for our salvation. Jesus was baptized when He was on the earth, and we do this to follow His example. When Christians are baptized, they are submerged under water to identify with the death and burial of Jesus and raised out of the water to identify with His resurrection.
If you are ready to be baptized: Register Here
You can be baptized during one of our Easter Services:
9AM Service OR
10:45AM Service
We believe that water baptism is a public declaration of three important things: you are a follower of Jesus Christ, you are beginning a changed life in Christ, and you are part of a new family.
What does the Bible say about baptisms?
You are a follower of Jesus Christ.
“Those who accepted his message were baptized.” —Acts 2:41
You are beginning a changed life in Christ.
“We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” —Romans 6:4
You are part of a new family.
“So in Christ Jesus, you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” —Galatians 3:26–27
We will send you a video to watch to cover your Baptism orientation. We’ll also walk through what being baptized means and what the morning of your baptism will look like.
