At New Life Church, we're all about "reaching the one!" New Life is a vibrant, welcoming, and multiplying church committed to reaching those who do not know Jesus yet. Last year we launched a new campus, becoming one church in two locations. We're excited to welcome a new Worship and Media Pastor who is ready to build teams, equip leaders, create environments where people will experience God, and help us become more effective in reaching people throughout central South Dakota.
