New Song's Mission
To invite all to know Christ, celebrate God's presence, and be Christ's body in the world.

Making a house our home!


On July 29, 2001, New Song held its first church building from frontworship service at 912 20th Avenue in Coralville. Needing to move from its six-year location in Millennium Plaza next to the Dairy Queen, New Song purchased the former Community Christian Church building on 20th Avenue in March 2001.

Much work was needed to bring the property into compliance with current City Codes, and renovation continued through the summer months. Bob Cech of Cech Home Improvements provided general contractor services for the renovation, including some supervision and training of volunteers. In order to make the lower level accessible to all, New Song contracted with Schumacher Elevator Company to install a lift where the old stairway was located.

New Songers and friends of New Song devoted over 1,500 hours of Sweat Equity tearing out carpet, knocking down walls, hauling dirt, and painting every inch of the building, inside and out. Bob Cech installed a new stairway and enclosing walls, a new exit, an accessible bathroom, and walled off a new office. A new driveway and turn-around were poured, and the lift installation was finally completed in October. More photos

New Song began at the Westfield (now Ramada) Inn in October 1994 and moved to Millennium Plaza in 1995. New Songers are pleased to have a home of their own and look forward to continued growth in the 20th Avenue location. Everyone is welcome to come worship with us.
