What's up? 

We're excited to announce that Neal & Teresa Nelson welcomed Everett Levi - 5lbs, 12oz - into the world yesterday evening. Everyone is doing great. If you'd like to send them a gift or note, contact the church office

The Next Few

The next few days offers some wonderful opportunities for you to "be the church" and build relationships.  

  • NOTICE: The Member Meeting scheduled for this Sunday has been postponed to Sunday, October 5 at 4:00 p.m.
  • Check out our ministry partnerships page for other organizations and ways to serve.
  • Serving on Sundays. Being a mobile church takes a lot of work each week, and if you'd be willing to serve on a Sunday, go here. Serving with others helps you build friendships, bless guests and receive joy.
  • Youth Group (ReVerb) is now meeting on Sundays at the office at 5:00 p.m.

Now you can connect with friends, stay up-to-date with small groups, watch videos, listen to podcasts and more, all without ever leaving the app. Check out http://bit.ly/mynstarapp on your mobile device to start using Northstar's new app!
