This past Sunday, we enjoyed having Steph Martin back in the pulpit as part of our Centennial Guest Preacher Series. It was great to hear her message and get caught up with her during fellowship time.

New Wilmington Mission Conference

The New Wilmington Mission Conference (NWMC) is held every year at Westminster College in New Wilmington, PA. It is the longest-running Christian Mission-focused event in the United States (119 years and counting), typically attended by people from over 30 states and 20 countries.


This year's conference will be held July 18-23. While there are a number of conference events worth attending, your Mission Committee will be hosting an excursion to attend their Mission Fair, which will be held from 1:30-4:00pm on Sunday, July 20. In the past, the fair provided an opportunity to interact with Presbyterian missionaries, who are visiting from the mission field, and to learn about their experiences and how one might join them in supporting initiatives to improve the lives of those living in poverty in other countries. With the recent changes in the way that the PC (USA) supports global mission work, this year's Mission Fair should provide opportunities to better understand how these changes have impacted foreign service and how we might be able to adapt our approach to global mission support.


If you would like more information on the conference or if you think you might be interested in joining the group attending the Mission Fair, please contact Ted Mills (millsfam78@gmail.com).

Summer Mission Week

August 11-14, from 9am-12pm each day, Northmont has been invited to be the lead volunteers at the North Hills Community Outreach garden in Bellevue. Youth and adults can come to the garden each morning to pitch in. 


If you would like more info,

please contact Pastor Ben.

Update from the Stewardship and

Finance Committee

The good news is that we are nearing successful completion of our fundraising for the repaving of our parking lot, having raised more than $70,500. We thank all those who have contributed so generously.


The less good news is that pledged and non-pledged donations to our normal Adult Offering to pay for the day-to-day operations of Northmont have been lagging each month since March 2025.


As of June 30, actual Adult Offering contributions total $180,500, which is $8,300 or 4.4% below the Adult Offering budget of $188,800.


Contributions during July and August are typically below budget, because many members are in summer vacation mode. Please help us pay our bills by keeping up your contributions during the summer. Thank you!

NBC will NOT meet on Tuesday, July 15th.

Meetings will resume on Tuesday, July 22.
