Church Life and Ministry

Church Life and Ministry

We have a deep commitment to spiritual growth and community service.  Here at NLBCC, we look for ways to minister to our congregation and to others. 

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

The Gospel According to John 13:34-35 (ESV)
