I want to give you a personal invitation to attend the services and ministries of New Life Community Baptist Church located at 1235 Walnut Street in Bedford VA.  We are a young church, which began in the summer of 2006. 

Our congregation is growing, and we have a good cross-section of ages in our including toddlers to senior saints.  You will find our folks to be warm and cordial. 

As you look around on our site, I think you find information that will inspire, as well as inform you.  I write a daily devotional called Cartoonology.  This is a unique way of applying the Bible to everyday life using cartoons that you see regularly in your newspapers.  Check under the Spiritual Questions tab on our site to find all previous devotionals.  Sign up to receive these daily devotionals by e-mail by sending a message to edrynn@verizon.net and asking for them.

Please come and be with us.  Make New LIfe "Your Family Worship Center".  We look forward to meeting you.  May the Lord richly bless you and yours.
