At New Life you will find that we are very passionate about Sheffield. We believe that it takes a team of people to make a difference and we are glad to be a part of the Sheffield City Team that is helping to make Sheffield an even greater place to live.

We have weekly services that are held in the City Centre, we are located at the Hilton Hotel UPSTAIRS on the 2nd floor. Our services are specifically designed so that you can clearly understand what the Bible has to say about life and

how we can live constantly in hope because of the promises that are given to all of us through Jesus Christ.

Like you we want to see how the Bible is relevant today and how the Christian life really is a great life to have.

What kind of things do we do in Sheffield ?

Kids Zone happens every 2nd and 3rd Sunday for children aged 5yrs - 12yrs where we have great educational activities designed for the Kids that come along to New Life.

Some of our topics and activities include: • I AM Brilliant • My world Our World • Arts and Crafts • Science

We are proud to have a partnership with Costa Coffee Shop Division Street Sheffield City Centre where every Wednesday 6:30pm we host a Bible Group where you can come along even if you are just curious or if you would like to meet other likeminded people and build lasting friendship. Bi-monthly we have live music and entertainment on a Sunday night called 'Gospel Night Live', where local people from Sheffield come and entertain us, it’s always a great night!

Our Breakfast Morning workshops that are split between Ladies and Men, meet on a regular basis where we provide training and development, as well as an opportunity to come together to help meet new people, and enjoy a good old fashion full English breakfast! These workshops are open to the whole community and we regularly have leaders from Sheffield engaging with us as well as local people giving us insight into their life and how they have achieved great successes.

This year New Life joined together with people from the local community to launch our first 'New Life Food-Bank'.

We have partnered with Roundabout a local organisation that supports homeless young people and young families.

Here we are the beginning of a New Year! and 2014 has an amazing buzz, doesn't it?! Are you feeling it? I am!

Over the last few months, I've had an "awakening" and I felt compelled to share. I’ve been on a journey one of serious reflection and introspection.

The journey has led me through painfully pulling back the layers, getting real and being honest with myself. I'm still on the journey and I’m amazed each day at the new experiences and new people that are crossing my path and the doors that are opening, I am certain, they are NOT coincidental, but have been orchestrated by God Himself. What I'm experiencing it's not just for me...

It's for us ALL BUT you have to be ready both in your head and in your heart! (Spirit). You have to be open to the possibility that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE TO THOSE THAT TRUST GOD, and then, and only then, will the doors open and you can see what was has been right in front of you all along.

struggles and challenges are very much tied to our success in life!

My mind-set shift is all about YES I CAN. We all have concerns and challenges, we have distractions and obstacles, but if we remember the mantra YES I CAN and keep pushing through, it's amazing what can and will happen!

That said, we also need support! and that's where I am stepping up! I have launched the YES I CAN movement and challenge for you Ladies for 2014.

Whatever your YES I CAN may be: health, relationships, business, family the GLL YES I CAN movement is here to support you! Through GLL workshops, Events, Devotions and more.

Let's make 2014 our best year where we are finally 'Living on Purpose'. See you at the events and join me online.

Love you. Pastor Shirleena. x

I’m pretty certain that you experience some of the same concerns that I do and like it or not, our personal

Pastor’s Blog

Consider God'ʹs Report: John 12:38

Whenever a person is given a report, it is hoped to be one that brings good news. God's report is one that contains hope and victory, why do we cast so much doubt on a WORD so strong and sure? Is it because the circumstances that surround us, seems to outshine the word that God has given us.

What we must remember is that God's report is Eternal and according to: Isaiah: 55:11; not return to him void, in other words God's word is TRUE Word.

God's word is Light, John 12:46: I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

The Report Of Christ Is the Light of Truth.

We must not be overcome by the darkness of doubt, we have to be grounded in the Light of faith that God's report of victory in our lives is true and sure. God's report in the heavenlies is that you are Special, Unique, Wonderful & Precious to him. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

Who's Report do YOU believe?
