About NewChurch

NewChurch is a vibrant, community-focused church that meets in the theater at Faith West Preschool each Sunday. We are passionate about creating a welcoming space where families can grow together in faith, relationships, and service.

We place a strong emphasis on family-centered worship. During our Sunday services, children remain with their families for the first half of the service so they can grow up singing, praying, and learning to love Jesus alongside their parents. During the message portion of the service, children are invited to participate in our YoungOnes ministry, where they experience age-appropriate teaching in a loving, engaging environment.

We believe the local church plays a vital role in shaping not just individual faith, but the spiritual life of the entire family—and we are honored to partner with parents in that calling.
