New Times.
New Opportunities.

STARTING SEPTEMBER 8

8:30 & 10 AM

Pleasant Hill is growing, and so is our church! This is why we're excited to share that starting on September 8th, we're launching two services and new service times.

Starting September 8th new service times will
be Sundays at 8:30 & 10:00AM

NEW OPPORTUNITIES. Starting Now.

But listen, this isn’t just about new times; this is about new opportunities for people to create authentic relationships built on the truth and grace of Jesus! It’s being the fingerprint of Jesus on a whole new level!

There are SO MANY opportunities for you to make a kingdom impact by serving as a Contributor. Here’s the thing, though: We’re not looking for warm bodies. We’re praying for willing hearts! Hearts that are open to God using them for His purposes.

Joining us for the first time?

We’re so excited that you’re considering joining us! We also know that visiting someplace new naturally brings to mind the question, “What can I expect?” So, we’ve done our best to answer that question as you scroll through this page.

How do I get there?

A simple but important question:

6036 NE 12th Ave
Pleasant Hill, IA 50327

But the best way to find us is to search NewLife Church in your map app of choice or click the button below.

Get Directions

What should I do when I arrive?

Well, first, you'll find a front row parking spot in one of our reserved "guest parking" spots. Then as you walk into the building you'll be greeted by our friendly Welcome Team and maybe grab some free coffee at the kitchen window. Then head to our Welcome Desk right in the middle of our lobby and let them know you're new because we have a free gift for you! Or if you have kiddos, you'll park in the North lot and enter through the NE NextGen doors where you’ll head to the Kids Check-In Desk and be welcomed by our friendly team who will help get your kiddos checked and plugged into their age appropriate classes.

Once you see the countdown start on the screens in the lobby, you’ll know it’s time to finish up those conversations and head to the Worship Center. (Unless you already grabbed a great seat right when you arrived!)

What if I have kids?

Like we mentioned above, you’ll head right to the NextGen area at the North end of the building and let our rockstar team know that you’re new! They’ll walk you through getting your little ones (Infant through 5th Grade) checked in to NewLife Kids and show you to the classroom they’ll be in while you’re in “big church*.”

*At least that’s what the kids call it:)

What else
should I know?

We’re sure you still have questions, so feel free to explore some of the answers to the most common questions we get.

We believe in Jesus.

If you’d like an expanded explanation you’ll find our Beliefs page extra helpful.

We do! Bringing the fingerprint of Jesus to the SE Polk area and beyond is why we’re here! This whole thing exists to make Jesus famous and advance His kingdom here in Pleasant Hill and beyond.

A good rule of thumb would be about 20 minutes in advance, especially if you have kiddos to check in. This will give you plenty of time to get everyone situated, grab a coffee if you like and be ready to grab a seat once service starts.

Whatever you want! Weekends are crazy enough without having to worry about finding your fancy threads. Most people who attend NewLife dress in casual clothing like jeans and a t-shirt. Others choose to dress it up, but we are more concerned about you than what you are wearing.

YES!!! We’re here to share the love of Jesus. He didn’t exclude people, so neither do we.

Feel free to let us know what additional questions you might have by filling out this form and our team will be sure to follow up with you.
