Sunday, January 31st - Pasta Dinner Fundraiser @ 5:00pm to 8:00pm
|

On December 16, 2009 there was a deadly house fire on Avenida Espana, right across the street from our church. On the night of the fire, the adult son Julio was unable to make it out of the house. Both parents, Tony & Anita Garcia, made it out, but were treated for smoke inhalation. Tony remained in the hospital until he also passed away about 2 weeks later. We are holding this fundraiser to assist Anita who lost not only her husband & son, but everything they owned in the fire. (Donations also accepted…any amount helps!) Details in

We are a
Progressive Christian community,
offering Christ’s
reconciliation, hope, and healing
to all people.
- We are a
joyful and praising-God kind of
church, who takes seriously
reconciliation among all faiths,
ethnicities, and diversities;
who reverently claims the power
of prayer to heal and change
life; who sees God’s redemptive
love in everyday life.
- We are a
church where someone can “bump
into us” along the way to other
places -- at a yard sale, a spiritual garden, a
coffee house Bible study, youth
activities,
a
pet blessing,
at local senior
housing and the teen center ...
- We are a new
new church for a new new
century. We
stand in a strong tradition and
heritage of bringing the good news
of Jesus Christ to a hungry
broken world. Come and
experience New Creation Lutheran
Church: a new kind of church.

Our History |
|
New
Creation Lutheran Church was
Chartered here in south San Jose on
November 5th 1995. With a vision for
the future and a pre-school up and
running, we were about to begin the
call process for a pastor.
Everything came to a halt when the
entire building was destroyed by an
arson fire on December 28th 1995.
The members met for Sunday services
at parks, Los Paseos School's
cafeteria, and at Rancho Santa Teresa
Swim
and Racquet club. The rebuilding
process took a long time but we had
faith that we would see it through. Some of the members
literally swung hammers. Friends
came to paint the entire building
and install all the new carpeting.
By the grace of God and with the
help of its determined members and
friends, New Creation was re-opened
and dedicated on February 8th, 1998.
Pastor
Anne Carlson came to us in 2004,
helping us form a clear vision
for the future. Active small groups,
music, and youth programs keep us
growing and evolving. Our children are very
much involved with our service. God
indeed intended for us to be here in
south San Jose. There are still many
things to be done. New Creation is
indeed a new kind of
church. |
