This SUNDAY, OCTOBER 26th, THE REVEREND SUSAN MEYER will join us as part of our 100th Anniversary Guest Preacher Series.

She was Assistant Pastor at Northmont in 1982 and then Associate Pastor in 1984. Upon leaving Northmont in 1997, she was director of the Alzheimer’s unit at a local nursing home. In 2001, she moved to Holy Family Institute’s In-Home Program and later transitioned to the Family Focused program, which provides mental-health care within the home. She retired from Holy Family in September 2023.

We hope you’ll be able to join us in welcoming her.

2026 STEWARDSHIP CAMPAIGN



Please remember, we will present our commitment-pledge cards during the service, this Sunday, October 26. Please bring your completed pledge card with you to worship. Thank you in advance for your continued generosity and care for one another.

MANGOCHI REPORT

As you may be aware, Pittsburgh Presbytery has recently sent a partnership group back to Malawi. Included was a stop to visit our partner church in Mangochi. 

Rev. Tyler Domske sent back these photos from the church- which has designated an area in the building called the ‘Northmont Corner’.



Please join us in continuing to pray for those on the trip and the work we do together.
