Even as followers of Jesus, we can feel the weight of invisible chains—destructive habits we can’t shake, legalism that drains our hope, a bondage that quietly steals the joy Christ won for us. But the gospel tells a different story. In our new series, “Free Indeed,” we’ll journey through Paul’s letter to the Galatians and discover how Christ has shattered our shackles. Together we’ll learn to stand firm in the truth that “for freedom Christ has set us free” (Gal. 5:1) and step into the wide-open life of grace God has called us to live. Join us and experience the wonder of walking as liberated people of God.

This Sunday, Pastor Chris will continue our series with a sermon titled "Becoming Who You Are in Christ" from Galatians 3:23-29.

Join us in blessing our neighbors at Wayside Cross through a food drive! 

From November 12-30, we will be collecting non-perishable food items. Please leave items in one of the two bins, which will be located in the Narthex and office stairwell. 

Wayside Cross Ministries is a Homeless and Addiction Recovery Center in Aurora, IL.
Find out more about them on their website: waysidecross.org.

Please email youth@newcovenantnaperville.org for more info.

Join us in Fellowship Hall at 9:00 AM on November 9, 16, and 23 for Gospel Conversations. This is a three-week Sunday school class and workshop to give us some basic encouragement and tools to begin to do evangelism in our spheres of influence, leaving the results up to God but expecting Him to work through our imperfect efforts.

The basic approach is to trust that the Lord cares about our friends even more than we do and in fact is already working in their lives. It is our task simply to come alongside Him in His workplace. Gospel Conversations will equip us to:

• Understand and share the gospel;
• Share our testimonies; and
• Become bolder and more comfortable in speaking about Jesus.

For more information, email communications@newcovenantnaperville.org

This is an opportunity for visitors or newcomers to get to know our pastors over coffee and pastries. We meet in the conference room on November 16, right after church.

Our Bible studies are journeying through the book of Deuteronomy - the renewal of God’s covenant with the Israelites as they prepared to enter the promised land.

Men: Saturday 8:00 AM
Women: Wednesday 6:30 PM, Thursday 9:30 AM

Our heart for the youth group is all about belonging. We want every single young person to know and experience that in the Church they can be loved, be cared for, and belong. We can't wait to build our community together!

Youth ages 6th-12th grade, join us on Wednesday Evenings, 6:30 PM for a time of teaching and fun.  

 

A fundamental question woven through the book of Samuel is who is the real king of Israel. After the failures of Eli's and Samuel's sons, the people ask for a king, which God interprets as a rejection of his kingship. Saul fails in large part because of his lack of obedience to God, the true king. David has a mixed record but succeeds, if you will, to the degree that he trusts in God. But even he is not the true king of Israel.

Ages 6th grade through High School - 9:00 AM in the Parlor.

Join us after the service for a fresh brewed cup of coffee, a treat . . . or two, and a time to relax, discuss the service, and fellowship with friends - old and new.

Join us in the Parlor for a pre-service prayer meeting for our church, our community, and the world. All are welcome to join.


We will begin at 10:05 and wrap up around 10:25.

The threefold vision of New Covenant Church is to see "Christ Preached, Love Extended, and Lives Transformed." While the Sunday morning worship service is integral to this vision, we believe you will thrive in one of our small groups.
