Welcome to New Covenant! We believe God is good all the time and we gather on Sundays to celebrate His goodness. We are really glad you have decided to join us today!

If you are new to New Covenant be sure to visit our Welcome Centre in the lobby to receive a special gift and a brochure designed to answer some of the questions you are probably asking and to help you get the most out of your first few visits.

This handout is our monthly communications brochure and is designed to make you aware of everything that is happening at NC. Feel free to participate in as much or as little as you are ready for.

Our hope is that as you take the next step into the New Covenant community and get more involved, you will begin to see that NC is more than just a Sunday Morning celebration; it is a family of everyday people following Jesus together to bring hope and change to the world - one life at a time.

Do you believe all of God’s promises? Do you really believe them? Is your faith without hesitation?

That’s where we get tripped up isn’t? We believe ... but we hesitate to believe. We believe … but some doubt creeps in. We believe He can … but we wonder if He will. We believe but often our belief is not without hesitation. Can we really call this kind of quasi-belief ‘faith’?

James 1:6-7 says no. “But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.” (NIV) True faith is belief without doubt, without pause, without hesitation.

True faith is belief without doubt, without pause, without hesitation.

Faith and doubt cannot coexist. Doubt nullifies our faith. Doubt might be keeping you from experiencing and receiving all that God has for you.

In our ‘Good Enough’ series, which begins on Sunday, June 7, we will be dealing with two common causes of doubt and teaching two truths that will help you believe and not doubt so you can receive and experience all that God has made available to you through Jesus.

Our Purpose: Celebrating God’s goodness!

Our Mission: Helping one another to Encounter God, be Equipped by His Word, and Empowered

by His Spirit to live a life that celebrates God.

Sundays at NC! God has more for you. Actually, everything God has promised you is yours through Jesus. In 1 Corinthians 1:20 it says, “For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ.” Everything God has promised is yours because of Jesus.

However, our beliefs affect our ability to receive all that God has for us. In this series you will learn two essential truths you must believe before you can experience all that God has for you.
