I am part of the New Heritage family because I believe one’s faith is an ongoing adventure.
New Heritage is an environment that encourages questions and allows ongoing development and discovery of one’s spiritual viewpoint.
We do not all have the same perspective because we all have a different “heritage.” We can be united in our pursuit of making the best possible attempt to live our lives with Jesus Christ as our primary role model.
I want to be a part of a group of people who are committed to a "faith journey." When we think we have all the answers is when we stop learning and growing.
I want to be a part of a group of people who are more interested in being like Jesus than doing all the "right" things at church.
Personally, I believe God is more interested in what we do with the other 166 hours in our weeks than what we do during those 2 hours on Sunday.
I am part of the New Heritage family because I believe God's Spirit is with us on this "adventure."
His Spirit is helping us grow and learn and become contributing members of the Kingdom.
It is exciting to explore the concept the Kingdom of God being here and now.
Maybe we don’t have to die to begin to experience it.

When my husband and I returned to TX from Portland we had a hard time finding a family to worship with. The family we were a part of in the NW was the first that had shown us how to be mission minded where we are, not only in a foreign land. With that example we set out to find something similar in TX. Instead of finding a place, we found people. Those were the people who saw the vision of New Heritage and invited us along.
We stayed because it was refreshing to worship without invisible rules or judgment. The only rules implied were the ones God established, and they weren't "don't do this or that", but instead "love" and "use your gifts".
We stayed because the people were real. Real about their joy and their troubles, always with the foundation of Christ.
We stay because we believe in a vision of a church without walls. We are certain it is relationships that draw people to know him, not a building.
We stay because we always leave challenged. I have known Jesus all my life, but still feel like an infant when it comes to living out a life like His. At New Heritage I'm allowed to struggle and question and discover as I give it a whirl.
Why am I and my family at NH?
Perhaps a better question: what keeps us here?

Most Sunday mornings come and I dread leaving the house to attend worship service. I'm a serious home body. But I must admit it,... once I see those sweet faces waiting at the entrance of New Heritage, I am feeling at peace and anxious to worship The Father with the family inside.
The folks who meet together in our building are such a loving and supportive bunch. Time slips away quickly when I am with them. I don't doubt the sincere interest that is shown to me there, and I have never felt as though I were being judged. I appreciate the acceptance and love the family there has for every soul. I know it stems from the understanding our shepherds and members have in that we are all God's children.
I've said it many times before and it still holds true for me now,... 'Freedom' is the best feeling I have, besides love, when I think of New Heritage. I am free to experience, explore, seek, and relax in the arms of my family there.
Thank you to my family and friends at NH. May God hold each of you close.
