GAP Spring Kickoff
The spring semester is not too far off in the town of Blacksburg. The GAP ministry is gearing up for our Spring Kickoff and we want you to be there. Sure, we're just a month into winter, but we know spring is coming and it's a great excuse to get together with new and old friends for an awesome time. We'll play a big game of Family Feud as well as have other games going on throughout the night. Bring your favorite board games and snacks to share!

Northstar Volunteer Ministry
A new semester has begun in Blacksburg and at Northstar Church. With the new semester come new opportunities to serve and we are actively looking for folks who are interested in meeting new people and want to invest in God's kingdom through service. You are encouraged to get involved in an area where you can use your talents to bless others, whether that be through set up and tear down on Sundays or in helping with children's ministry.
