How Can I Get Involved?

Jesus told us, his disciples, to make disciples of all nations. One of the most important values of Second New Light Church is our mission to the world. It begins in our own community, and spreads overseas to every nation. Second New Light members are involved in a variety of ministries from things as simple as preparing the church bulletins, to preparing fellowship meals.

Sunday School

The purpose of the Sunday School is to communicate the gospel to children, and adults through the teaching process. Sunday School and small groups have a major impact on the health of the local church. A church that has a growing Sunday School also has a growing worship and membership.

 

Church Training Union (CTU)

The CTU seeks to develop members to minister by training them through specific areas: polity (church government), doctrine (church belief), and leadership.CTU affords every member of the church the opportunity to enhance and develop spiritual gifts designed to edify the Body of Christ.


 

 Outreach Ministry

We are active in missionary work and support missions in Nigeria and other countries through the Union Missionary Baptist Association and Lott Carey Foreign Missions with our money and with our prayers. We also partner will Angel Tree Project to provide Christmas gifts for children of incarcerated parents.

Laymen League 

The Layman’s League consist of the adult male population of the church. The Layamen’s League is a group of spiritually guided men that are very concerned about the development of male youth into spirit-filled men. The goal of the Laymen’s League is to assist the church in cultivating our males into becoming productive citizens in their homes,church, schools, and communities.

 Music Ministry

God-honoring worship is something we strive for. Many church members are involved in our music ministry. Second New Light has four choirs in which our members participate. On 1st Sundays the Sanctuary choir sings. 2nd Sundays is the exciting FUSION Youth Choir. 3rd Sundays is the traditional Gospel Choir. And 4th Sundays the energetic Praise Choir.

Angels of Praise

The Angels of Praise Dance Ministry is designed to express the art of dance through praise and worship of our Lord Jesus Christ. The art of dance expresses the feeling and emotions of God in which His Holy Spirit flows through the very being as one dances. The purpose of our praise dance ministry is to develop ministerial dancers that will minister to others through Song and Praise. 

Ushers

The usher team at Second New Light fills an important role. They are involved in directing attendees to their seats, ensuring the safety of the building during services,helping visitors, answering questions, providing direction, and generally ensuring that the service can proceed problem-free. The usher team is a servant-hearted group of men , women, and youth whose ministry is integral to church life.

Nurses Aid Ministry

The Nurses Aid Ministry provides care and assistance, as needed, during our worship services. Our nurses aides are certified in CPR and Defibullator usage. They also coordinate health and wellness within our congregation.

Media & Technology

Using media to spread the gospel is a privilege of Second New Light Church. In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes. During our services we offer monitor projection of upcoming events, sermon outlines and What’s the 411 FUSION news broadcast.  

Children’s Church

In order to give our children the best Bible teaching possible, Second New Light holds a children’s church service in conjunction with the main service,with the exception of 2nd Sundays, FUSION Youth Sunday. This special time gives kids more opportunity for interaction and learning in a context and manner that may be better suited to their age and learning styles. Our friendly children’s church volunteers have an endless stream of creativity–ranging from video lessons, crafts, skits and a small snack.

 Culinary Arts Ministry

Fellowship is an important aspect of church life and nothing goes better with good fellowship than good food. The Culinary Arts Ministry of Second New Light, supports a variety of of church functions from light refreshments to full course meals. They are always on the lookout for great cooks within the church family, to assist with preparation and serving at church events.
