| - My very first visit was in September of 2012. I was greeted by an older gentleman at the door and when I asked him how his day was, he replied, "It is a great day! I always know that I am loved when I come here."
Since that day, I have been back nearly every Sunday and will definitely agree to that man's sentiments. At New Song, I always feel loved, welcome, and part of a joyful and friendly community. Those feelings were exactly what I was looking for in a worshipping community and I am so excited to have found them here in Anthem.
I have participated in each of the worship services they offer, a 5:30pm Saturday night one, which was really relaxed. It was really convenient when I had to go out of town that weekend. The 8:00 am service on Sundays is a traditional Lutheran service, very similar to my hometown back in MN. The 9:15am service is called a blended service, and that one offers hymns and contemporary music that is easy to sing. And the 10:30am service is the full blown, SOS radio, type worship.
One thing that I really appreciate is the sound theology that is always presented at New Song. There is a wide variety of Pastors who are invited to share the Word and that has really made a difference. I have learned so much since September!
Overall, it is a great community church that helps out the community in so many ways, including donating to local food shelves, helping students in the local middle school, teaching quality education to preschoolers, and (very excitedly) being one of the top places for blood donations. If you want a great worshipping experience that stretches beyond just Sunday morning, I highly recommend New Song!
