Faith in Action
In serving, we experience first hand the effectiveness and impact of our faith in action. The chance to give back is a joyful and healthy opportunity waiting to come to life.
Take the leap to be an active part of God's work here! Every week we have teams expressing our devotion to God in service to our community and to others in the church. Take a look and we'll get you connected! You can be an active part of God's work here. Each Sunday more than 1,000 people worship at New Life across all three campuses and thousands more are impacted through the nZone and our online ministries. By partnering with New Life through serving Sundays and through out the week, you are making a positive impact on the community around us and encouraging others.
Start by volunteering once a month.
It is amazing how much joy is found in using our gifts for God!

Specialized Opportunities
Not sure a specific team is your calling? We could use your God-given special skills in the upkeep of the place we call home every Sunday
Graphic Designer
We always have posters to design. Want to help make awesome social media, website, and Sunday screen graphics? Help us shout how good God is!
Video Production
Those awesome videos don't create themselves. Larry could use someone for a few hours during the week to help shoot videos or create videos on your own to help us tell stories of what God is doing at New Life! Got experience we can learn from? We want to talk to you too! Experience appreciated but not required.
Social Media Brand Advocate
Love tweeting, posting, and generally hanging out online? So do we… perhaps a bit too much. Leverage that passion to let people know about the great stuff going through New Life and the nZone.
Writer/Editor
Know the difference between clickthrough rate and conversion rate? Get the word out by leveraging Google AdWords and more to invite people into a relationship with Christ.
nZone Facilities Opportunities
Maintaining and operating the nZone is a huge job. Every dollar we save through volunteers increases the resources we allocate to reaching people for Christ or lowering our prices to make the nZone more accessible.
Greeting and Welcome Team
Be the first person someone sees as they enter the nZone, creating a safe, welcoming environment for people to experience the love of Jesus. Answer basic questions and make the nZone the friendliest place in NoVa.
Drywaller and/or Painter
Turns out soccer balls are pretty rough on walls… so are people lugging 100lb equipment bags. We pretty much always have a wall or two that could use some TLC. Help us make the nZone shine.
Handyman/Carpenter
We have loose dashers, we have doors that need adjusted, and we have undone cabinetry work like building shelving and repairing units.
Electrician
You know those light fixtures with dark bulbs? Turns out it's not the bulbs. We'd rather not pay hazard duty rates for the electrician to use that big scary lift. Work with 110 and 277? Let us know.
PLUMBER
We just can't seem to keep all the drains unplugged or faucets working quite like they are supposed to. Just about the time we fix one of those, a toilet starts flushing on its own and for some reason that seems to freak out the three-year-olds who are potty training. You can make parents everywhere rejoice.
HVAC Expert
Our office HVAC system is a little older and we would love for someone to consult and possibly fix up or clean the system. Sound good?
Organizer Extraordinaire
There is almost always an area or ministry that could use some organization. Come in for a couple hours and help us make some headway!
Surface Wiper-Downer
There is always something that needs cleaning. Fitness equipment, dasher boards, the occasional load of laundry, and much more. Make the nZone shine!
