Abundant Life Academy is a private, inter-denominational, Christian School housed on the Abundant Life Worship Center campus in Nutley, NJ. As a ministry of NALWC, ALA’s mission is to achieve academic excellence while sharing God’s love with children and their families. Abundant Life Academy is a school you can trust to educate your child. A parent’s decision to enroll their child at ALA creates a partnership and this partnership of parents and staff establishes an unbreakable bond of love and safety for our children. Our academy begins with pre-kindergarten for 3 & 4 year olds and continues through grade 12. Equal emphasis is placed on all four levels: Pre-kindergarten, Elementary, Middle School and High School. ALA does not recruit high school students. Only those who meet admissions requirements, can proceed to the high school program.

The Music Ministry of NALWC, the modern day Levites, set apart and sanctified for His service, desire to worship the Lord in Spirit and in Truth. We look to lift up the name of Jesus and set an atmosphere for corporate praise with psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, and intimate, holy worship to the Lord so all who enter will experience His manifest presence and supernatural glory. The music ministry continues to passionately pursue Jesus with a spirit of excellence as they grow in their sensitivity to the Holy Spirit and enjoy the glory of His goodness. In addition to serving our church family at every service, we have a burden to proclaim freedom and liberty to the captives and bring the “good news” to those outside the church through evangelistic outreaches. We enjoy uniting all the choirs during the Christmas season to share the love of Jesus and minister salvation and healing to the lost and broken.
The Music Ministry includes:
- Instruments of Praise (IOP)
- His Voice Choir (HVC)
- Kidz’ Praize Choir (KPC)
- Teenz’ Praize Choir (TPC)

It is our prayer that the visual component of the arts would enable the believer and unbeliever to "see" that truly God is in this place and that His presence is real; so real that it would cause all of us to fall on our faces and worship Him. I Corinthians 14:24-2
The "artists" work under the leading of the worship leaders and the flow of the Holy Spirit. Members of the team seek to glorify Him through spontaneous worship; as well as minister choreographed pieces for special church events.

This is a two-fold ministry. First, to minister to our precious babies by meeting their physical needs and to lovingly nurture, cuddle, pray over, and sing to them. Secondly, our ministry is to be a blessing to the parents by providing them the opportunity to enjoy two quiet services a week without having to worry about their children. While we are changing diapers, wiping noses, and tying shoes, mom and dad are growing spiritually. We are also there to encourage parents and provide information and advice, especially to new moms.
