Discovery Zone Childrens Ministry
Discovery Zone is a very unique and very exciting program to use with children in any church setting.

By placing a fresh twist on stories found throughout Scripture, your child will understand the core ideas and truths behind each passage they read.

The Edge, our Youth Group for teens in 6-12th grades, on Wednesday Night's will be held at The Connection House (in the Toughekanmon / Avondale, PA area). The teens have an awesome time together playing games and studying God’s word. They always have a great time and never actually want to leave. They are currently going through an in-depth study of scripture which has prompted a lot of great discussion within the group. The goal is to help the teens understand not only what they believe but why they believe! The Connection House is located at 8940 Gap Newport Pike, Avondale, PA (House is large white house that is directly next door to Turkey Hill gas station. There is also a small sign in front of the house that says Jim’s Commercial Service).
The Edge, our Youth Group for teens in 6-12th grades, will be held at 9:30am at our Concordville location (Holiday Inn Express on Rt 1 & 202), just prior to our Sunday Morning Worship Service. The teens have an awesome time together playing games and studying God’s word. They always have a great time and never actually want to leave. They will be doing a different study then the study they are going through on Wednesday Nights. The goal however, is still the same - to help the teens understand not only what they believe but why they believe!
Worship and Creative Arts Minisrty

Music
Reaching across musical styles and tastes, we present the good news of Jesus Christ, in a way that relates to a wide spectrum of people. From our children to adults the people of NBC love to worship the Lord through music.
Creative Arts
We love to incorporate different creative arts into our Worship service. We love to use drama, videos, set designs, and many other exciting and new ideas to our services to bring to life the message of the good news.
If God has blessed you with a creative mind or the ability to play an instrument, sing, act, design, or direct then this ministry is for you.
Our Mission is to reach out to our community with the message of God’s grace and love. We are here to help guide the lost to the light, show the weary where to find rest, and point the cast down to the one who will lift them up. We are here to be a conduit of God’s love, acceptance and grace.
John 3:16, clearly tells us Jesus’ purpose for living. We also recognize that is our mission as well. We expect our members to seek every opportunity to give a witness whether through word or deed. We promise to partner with you as you pursue Kingdom excellence. If you invite them, we will invest in them. We expect our members to remove any obstacle that would prevent someone from hearing God’s message of love and hope. We will extend loving arms and open hearts at every opportunity!
The purpose of New Beginnings Church Celebrate Recovery ministry is to fellowship and celebrate God’s healing power in our lives through the “Eight Recovery Principles.” We open the door by sharing our experiences, strengths and hopes with one another. In addition, we become willing to accept God’s grace in solving the problems in our lives. By working and applying Biblical principles, we begin to grow spiritually, and become free from our addictive, compulsive and dysfunctional behaviors. This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy, and most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with God and others. As we progress through the program we discover our personal, loving and forgiving Higher Power – Jesus Christ, the one and only Higher Power. If you are interested please contact Bob Tyson or Jimmy Cornett.

The Road to recovery
Realize I'm not God. I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and that my life is unmanageable.
Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor.
Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover.
Happy are those who mourn. God will comfort them.
Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ's care and control.
Happy are the humble.
Openly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God, and to someone I trust.
Happy are the pure in heart.
Voluntarily submit to every change God wants to make in my life and humbly ask Him to remove my character defects.
Happy are those whose greatest desire is to do what God requires.
Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make amends for harm I've done to others, except when to do so would harm them or others.
Happy are the merciful. Happy are the peacemakers.
Reserve a daily time with God for self-examination, Bible reading, and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain the power to follow His will.
Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and by my words.
Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires.
