New Life Church groups and activities
We are currently restructuring all of the small groups within the church. In the meantime, this page contains details of all the groups and activities that are currently taking place within the life of New Life Church.
Alpha: Alpha is a ten week course that is a great opportunity for you to explore Christianity with no strings attached. Our courses currently start in January and September and take place in Tunbridge Wells on Monday evenings and Tuesday mornings. Click here for more information.
Art and Craft group: On Saturday mornings The Old Ambulance Station in Tunbridge Wells becomes a frenzy of artistic talent. Whether you are into painting, sketching, sculpting, etc. 10:00am to 12:00pm every Saturday.
Bethel Sozo: Sozo sessions follow God's desire for people to be completely whole through deliverance and healing. For more information please email sozo@newlifechurchonline.co.uk.
Encounter Evenings: At various times throughout the year we run Encounter Evenings for church members. These are held at The Old Ambulance Station in Tunbridge Wells and the content of the evenings vary. However, the aim is to meet with God while worshipping and praying. Look out for details of forthcoming encounter evenings in the e-bulletin.
English Project: This is our English language school for people who want to learn English as a foreign language. It takes place at The Old Ambulance Station every Wednesday at 4:00pm. Afterwards there is a cafe where the students can practise their language skills. The lessons are free but students are asked to pay for their learning materials. For more information please click here.
Helping Hand: Helping Hand is where we support our local community by assembling a team of skilled and/or willing volunteers to take on jobs that may be too difficult for one person to tackle on their own. Jobs we have completed before now include gardening, garden clearance and decorating. So far the team have mainly operated in the Southborough area but we will consider jobs throughout Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge. For more information or to request help from Helping Hand please email stuart@newlifechurchonline.co.uk.
Ignite (youth): Our youth group is for church members aged between 11 and 18 and is mainly based at The Old Ambulance Station in Tunbridge Wells. We meet on Friday evenings (for a combination of social activites and worship and teaching) and on Sunday mornings during the main meeting in Tunbridge Wells. We also run various other events throughout the year including trips, weekends away and camping at the Newday youth event. For more information about Ignite please email nat@newlifechurchonline.co.uk.
Illuminate Theatre Company: Our theatre company offers performances and workshops to local schools. To find out more please click here to visit the Illuminate website or email kate@newlifechurchonline.co.uk.
Kidz Klub: Kidz Klub is loud and messy fun and is open to anyone aged between 4 and 11. It takes place every Friday during term-time from 5:30pm to 6:45pm at The Old Ambulance Station in Tunbridge Wells. Kidz Klub also has a minibus that picks up and drops off children throughout Tunbridge Wells and Southborough.
Life Groups: Our Life Groups are for New Life Church members only and are where we meet to study the bible, pray and have fun together. They take place at different times during the week (mostly evening but we do have some daytime groups) and they meet at various locations - usually in members' homes. Click here for more information.
Life Streams: These are groups within the church that are more 'out of the box' and include things like Prophetic, Intercession, Wild Evangelism and Pastoral. Click here for more information.
