Good evening, As we are moving forward with our capital campaign to purchase the building, we would like to invite you to submit a video telling each other what the building means to you and/or what New Life MCC means to you.
I have included the directions for creating your video and for watching the videos of others. I hope you enjoy this new way of connecting with each other and sharing your testimony.
