About the New Life Church Men's MAFIA Ministries:

“…but among you it should be quite different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must become your slave. For even I, the Son of Man, came here not to be served but to serve others, and to give my life as a ransom for many." Matthew 20:26-28 (NLT)

The New Life Church Men's MAFIA (Men After Faith, Integrity & Action) is a Christian fellowship of brothers-in-Christ dedicated to supporting each another, the NLC congregation and the community-at-large through service outreach (H.I.T.S. – Helping in the Spirit) , masculine accountability & encouragement, discipleship and prayer ministries.

NLC MAFIA – Helps Academics Plus Charter School

Greetings Hitmen,

As some of you may know the weather this past weekend put the bust on a scheduled day of service that was to be held at Maumelle’s Academics Plus Charter School.  Understanding that a cancelation of this magnitude can leave any community activity short handed, the MAFIA Leadership team has decided that this delay presents a perfect opportunity for our Hitmen participate in a local missions outreach to help out a worthy local cause.

This Saturday May 1st from 8 AM -12 PM the NLC MAFIA hitmen will be joining other local churches in resurrecting this day of service by providing some annual Spring cleaning and facility improvements at the APCS campus.  Among the planned projects we need your help to complete are:

Paint:

  • Maintenance and storage area- 40’x24’x14’
  • Portico- 24’x4’
  • F Building- 360’x10’ (Old Strip Mall)
  • A Building- 66’x100’x10’ (Yellow & Blue Bldg)

Concrete:

  • Cut curbs at Lake Point Place, frame, pour, and finish sidewalks- 230’x5’x4’’

Bridges:

  • Move wooden bridge to new offices  (Old Hardwyre / Softwyre)
  • Replace campus wooden bridge with concrete

Playground:

  • Move large rocks, dig out and replace drainage culvert, re-install fence

New Offices:

  • Set bridge, remove wall, set window

Install Doors:

  • Install new doors, frames, and hardware in F Building

Misc.:

  • Move rolls of rubber
  • Rework flower beds of A and F Buildings
  • Repair enclosures around trash receptacles
  • Repair underpinning on portable buildings
  • Replace damaged ceiling tile around campus
  • Clean up overgrowth around alley behind E and F Buildings

You don’t need to be skilled only willing to make a difference.  The materials are purchased and ready for your arrival.  All we need is you (bring your own tools please) and some of your time and we will make this a great day of service, fellowship and community outreach!  Nothing leaves an impression in the hearts and minds of youth like letting them know how very important they are to you, and more importantly to your God through your actions!

In His service,

Luke Ribich
