New Life Family Services NLFS provides life-affirming services through the following programs: pregnancy support, licensed adoption services, and post-abortion recovery. Together for Good aims to create pathways for the Church to come alongside vulnerable children and families in Christ-centered ministry.
Child foster care families play a crucial role in providing stability, support, and love to children who have experienced trauma or adversity. We want to be a church of all cultures where skeptical, curious, and hurting people love to attend.
We'll follow it, wherever it leads. Since it's never earned or deserved, we never have a reason not to give it away. We want everyone to grow in their faith journey. You don't have to think like we think, or act like we act, to be accepted here. We care more about your experience than our own. We invest our lives, not just our money. Nobody makes a difference by staying comfortable. In addition to weekly services, you'll find a wide range of programs, Sunday School options, Bible studies and classes, small groups , and events.
Some of our values include taking truth seriously, giving grace relentlessly, honoring guests enthusiastically, and more. We strive to offer the opportunities and programming of a large church while still providing avenues for close community.
Our large-group weekend gatherings are times when all guests worship and learn together and our small groups, classes, Bible studies, and serving teams are great ways to build close relationships and make a large church feel small. We love Rochester and are so grateful to be part of the community. This area is certainly a place of wonderful people, excellent opportunities, and a significant capacity to serve others. While most Autumn Ridge guests come from Rochester, there are some who come from surrounding communities in Southeast Minnesota.
