Laugh for Life
New Life Family Services has announced that The Laugh for Life is back, and will showcase Trey Kennedy as the featured act!
Trey found fame on social media while he was in college. He currently has a podcast titled “Correct Opinions” and just concluded his “Grow Up” Comedy Tour selling out cities across the United States.

Sunday Morning Worship
Experience God’s presence in a whole new way this Easter. “More of You God” is a journey leading to Easter.

Whether you’re sending up an SOS for marital rescue or looking to foster an already flourishing connection, Weekend to Remember is your best next step toward being, and staying, one.
