Our dream is to see a new network consisting of hundreds of new multi-cultural, multilingual communities started throughout Amsterdam and beyond who are wholeheartedly following God and serving their neighbors. The letters NL stand not only for New Life through a relationship with Jesus, but also for the nation of Holland, the Netherlands.
Mission
To be a multi-cultural community of believers who are committed to following the great commandment and carrying out the great commission (Mark 12:30-31; Matt 28:19-20).
Vision
NLN is a network of communities (churches) who meet in homes, parks, neighborhood centers, offices, etc. These communities include Alphas Courses, kid’s clubs, sports, service projects, prayer, and Bible study. Once a month, we all gather together to worship God and celebrate what he is doing in our lives.
Values Of NLN
We value the Bible as God’s Word and read, study, discuss and apply it in our lives to be changed as individuals and as a community (2 Tim 3:16).
We value and encourage spiritual disciplines and spiritual gifts.
We value (m)eating together in order to build community.
We value unchurched and irreligious people and seek to build authentic friendships whereinwe can be salt and light in these relationships (Matt 5:13-16).
We seek to be and to multiply new multi-cultural and multi-lingual communities.
We value children and young people.
We value sacrificial giving and extravagant service as a way to practically show God’s love.
